Newton generalized the law of attraction into a statement that every particle of matter in the 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...

...surface. For this purpose, he reasoned on his law of universal gravitation, which may be thus stated; ' Every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle, with a force varying inversely as the square of the distance.' Reasoning on this law, he calculated, from the effect... | |
