F = G * (m1 * m2) / r²
Where:
* F is the force of gravity between two objects
* G is the gravitational constant (approximately 6.674 × 10⁻¹¹ N⋅m²/kg²)
* m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
* r is the distance between the centers of the two objects
Explanation:
* The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects. This means that the more massive the objects, the stronger the gravitational force between them.
* The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the centers of the two objects. This means that the farther apart the objects are, the weaker the gravitational force between them.
Key Points:
* This formula applies to all objects with mass, regardless of their size or shape.
* The force of gravity is always attractive, meaning it pulls objects towards each other.
* This formula is an approximation that works well for most situations, but it does not account for the curvature of spacetime.
