...attracts every other particle, the force exerted between any two particles being directly proportional to the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of their distance apart. Fio. 28. Gravitation is the general term for the attraction that exists between...

...Every particle of matter in the Universe attracts every other particle with a force varying directly as the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of the distance between them. 2. There are five steps in the proof of this Law. I. The inverse square is the...

...employed. It is well known that uniform spheres attract each other with a force which is directly as the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of the distance between their centres. If this law were made to furnish the unit of force, the dimensions...

...as concentrated at its centre. The attraction of all bodies towards the earth will therefore vary as the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of the distance from the centre of the earth, so that the weight of any body upon the surface of the earth...

...Every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force varying directly as the product of their masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them." For a complete proof and verification of this law, even the mathematical methods...

...points of all particles, the number of these equal forces applied between two particles, is directly as the product of their masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them, as a necessary consequence of their situation. • RJ Adcock." We embrace this...

...other owing to the action of force, the strength of which between any two bodies increased directly as the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of the distance between them, some explanation of the force was made necessary, and Le Sage propounded his...

...of matter in the universe attracts every other particle, with an intensity which varies directly as the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of the distance which separates them. Newton deduced this law from his investigations of the relative acceleration...

...to exist : — The attraction between every two bodies of matter in the universe varies directly as the product of their masses, and inversely as the square of the distance between their centers of gravity. Representing the masses of two bodies by m and m', the distance...

...mathematics, London, 1888. universe attracts every other particle with a force which varies directly as the product of their masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them ; and he thence deduces the law of attraction for spherical shells of constant...
