Solution

Gravity:

A force that pulls a body towards the center of the earth or any other physical body with mass, is called gravity.

Formula:

F=Gm1m2D2

Here,

F is the force of gravity.

G is a gravitational constant.

m1 is the mass of the first object.

m2 is the mass of the second object.

D is the distance between two bodies.

Properties of the gravity:

  1. Gravity is one of the four fundamental forces in the universe as well as the most vulnerable of the four basic forces.
  2. Gravity seems to be a repressive force.
  3. Gravity has the ability to function over large distances.
  4. Gravity could not be characterized as a force of interaction or attraction.

Therefore, it is the force that pulls things toward the core of a planet as well as other objects.
