Newton's law of gravitation states that every point mass attracts every single other point mass by a force pointing along the line intersecting both points. The force is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:
F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2
Where: F is the force of gravitation between two masses G is the gravitational constant (approximately equal to 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2) m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects r is the distance between the centers of the two masses.
