Expert Solution
Step 1

      Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force, that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. 

             F = G M mr2

G is gravitational constant
