Full Description: Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation states that any two bodies in the universe attract each other with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. G is the Gravitational Constant (meter^3 kilograms^-1 seconds^-2) but in the context of this app is a multiplier for the actual value of G. The two m values are the masses (kilograms) of the two massive bodies. The value r is the distance (meters) between the two massive bodies measured from the center of mass of one body to the center of mass of the other. The value f is the force (Newtons) that exists between the two masses.
