Before Newton, the concept was completely non-existent.
Newton invented the whole idea, gave it the name "gravitation", created the formulas that
give it numbers, invented calculus in order to investigate how gravitation behaves, and
eventually showed ... on paper ... that the whole system he had developed predicts exactly
what we see the moon and all the planets doing in the sky.

What was newtons main contribution to enlightenment thought?
Issac Newton's contribution was Law of Gravity, Action/Reaction and Calculus
What was Isaac Newtons most important contribution to science?
His major contribution was the discovery of the principle of gravity on Earth and on other celestial bodies.
What was isaac newtons mathematicAL contribution?
Newton's mathematical contribution is the mathematical law of Gravity and the calculus. F=mGM/r2, is introduced mathematical physics, modern physics.

How does newtons law affect the force of gravity?
The law doesn't affect gravity; it describes it.
Which of Newtons laws is not a law of motion?
Gravity
Contribution of tycho brahe to science?
He took many measurements regarding the Orbits of planets which Keplar then used to formulate his 3 laws. This eventually was part of the prompting for Newtons law of gravity.
Do Laws of motion and gravity work together?
yes, since newtons law
How is coulombs law similar to newtons law of gravity?
Both are 'Inverse square' forces, f=k/r2 .
