Detailed Solution

The force of gravitation between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Force of gravitation,

F = \frac{G m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2}}

r

is the distance between two objects of mass

m_{1}

and

m_{2}

G =

universal gravitational constant
An object with mass attracts another object with mass; the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.
