What is the universal law of gravitation?

  • The force of attraction between two objects is directly proportional to the square of the distance between their centers and inversely proportional to the product of their masses.
  • The force of attraction between two objects is directly proportional to the sum of their masses and inversely proportional to the distance between their centers.
  • The force of attraction between two objects is directly proportional to the cube of the distance between their centers and inversely proportional to the product of their masses.
