Why? $G = g m^{1} \frac{m^{2}}{r^{2}}$

Open in App

Solution

That's because it's derived from the universal law of gravitation, which is as follows:
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.
$F_{g r a v i t y} = \frac{G M m}{d^{2}} G = 6.67 \times 10^{- 11} \frac{N m^{2}}{k g^{2}}$
