A force of attraction due to universal gravitation exists between my dog and your cat, two stones on the ground that are 10,000 miles apart, my fingernail and every star in a galaxy on the other end of the universe, and any two ugly bodies.


Will the force of attraction between same two bodies be same or different when they are in turn kept on earth?

The forces of gravitational attraction between two bodies depend on the product of their masses and on the distance between their centers. Where they're located, or what's between them, doesn't make any difference at all.

What does universal gravitational constant means?

The force of gravitational attraction between any two bodies, F, is given by the equation:F = G*M1*M2/r2 where M1 and M2 are the masses of the two bodies, r is the distance between their centres of mass and G is the universal gravitational constant.


Why is g called the universal constant?

It is the measure of the gravitational force experienced between any two bodies, anywhere in the universe. So, the same number is used to calculate the gravitational attraction between bodies anywhere in the universe. There are, however, some questions as to whether is is (or was) a constant over time.

Yes. Gravity is defined as the natural force of attraction between any two bodies with mass.


What is gravity and what does it do on earth?

Gravity is the force of attraction between all masses in the universe; especially the attraction of the earth's mass for bodies near its surface. It makes matter (any object that has mass) pulled towards earth's center and somehow put things in order.
