According to Newton's law of gravitation...

According to Newton's law of gravitation , everybody in this universe attracts every other body with a force, which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and the inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centres, i.e., `F prop (m_1m_2)/(r^2)` or
`F=G(m_1m_2)/(r^2)` where G is universal gravitational constant `=6.67xx10^(-11)N*m^2*kg^(-2)`.
