GRAVITATION

The phenomena of action of attractive forces between two bodies by virtue of their masses is known as Gravitation.

Newton's Law of Gravitation
"The force of attraction between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them".

                                         F = Gmm2 / r2

where G = universal gravitational constant

The gravitational force between the two masses is independent of the presence of other objects and medium present between the two masses.
