Answer: Gravitational force
Explanation:
The law of universal gravitation states that the force of attraction (F) between two bodies is directly proportional to their masses m1 and m2, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance (R) seperating them.
Thus, it is expressed mathematically as:
F = Gm1m2/R²
where,
- G is the gravitational constant with a value of 6.7 x 10^-11 Nm2/kg2
- F is the Gravitational force (unit is Newton)
- m1 and m2 are the masses of the two bodies (unit is kilograms)
- R is the distance seperating the two bodies. (unit is metres)
Thus, the formula f=G(m1m2)/R² help us find the gravitational force.
