...the stone back to itself — an instance of a general law, one operation of an ever-active force. For every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force proportional to the product of their masses, and increasing as the square of the distance decreases....

...to give it to the world in his famous Principia. Newton's law of universal gravitation may be thus stated : Every particle of matter in the universe...attracts every other particle with a force directly proportional to the mass of the attracting particle and inversely proportional to the square of the...

...the following generalisation, first explicitly given by Newton, and known us the Law of Graritatiun : Every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force whose direction is that of the straight line joining the two, and whose magnitude is proportional directly...

...in its orbit round the earth, and, in fact, he formulated his theory of Universal Gravitation 'that every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle, with a force whose direction is that of the line joining the two, and whose magnitude is directly as the product...

...the book of Eevelation that salvation is not by works, but by faith. The discovery by Newton, that every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force varying directly as its mass, and inversely as the square of its distance, is simply a fact of nature...

...the law of force being that known as the "law of inverse squares." This law maybe stated as follows: Every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force whose direction is in the line joining them, and whose magnitude varies directly as the mass of each...

...must be sought through the second part of the law, as may be seen from the law as stated in full. " Every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force, whose direction is that of the line joining the two, and whose magnitude is directly as the product...

...follow necessarily as the consequence of the law of gravitation, which he had discovered ; namely, that "every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that varies directly as the masses of the particles, and inversely as the square of the distance between...

...under their mutual attraction. In it Newton generalised 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...
