Newton's Law of Gravitation Calculator

The law of universal gravitation is a law published by Sir Isaac Newton in 1687 in the Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy to explain the gravitational force between objects. The law is as follows: Any two particles attract each other through a force in the direction of the line connecting their centers. The magnitude of this gravitational force is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance. It has nothing to do with the chemical nature or physical state of the two objects and the intermediate material. The formula is: F=G*M1M2/(R*R) (G=6.67×10^-11N·m^2/kg^2).

Newton published the law of universal gravitation in 1687 in the Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy based on the research of his predecessors (Kepler, Hooke, Wyen, Halley) and with his extraordinary mathematical ability, he proved it. The discovery of the law of universal gravitation is one of the greatest achievements of natural science in the 17th century.

Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation

Universal Gravitation: F = Gm₁m₂/r²

Here

G = gravitational constant = 6.6726 x 10^-11N-m²/kg²

m₁ = mass of object 1

m₂ = mass of object 2

r = distance between two objects
