Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
What really happened with Apple?
he more accurate version of the storey is that Newton started to think along these lines after seeing an apple fall from a tree: Since the apple's velocity varies from zero as it hangs from the tree and moves toward the earth, it is accelerated. As a result, Newton's 2nd Law dictates that there must be a force acting on the apple to induce this acceleration. Let's call this force "gravity," and the resulting acceleration "gravitational acceleration." Then multiply the height of the apple tree by two. Again, we expect the apple to be accelerated toward the earth, implying that the force we call gravity hits the highest apple tree.
Now we'll look at Newton's genuinely brilliant idea: if gravity can reach the top of the tallest tree, can it not reach even further? In fact, can it not reach all the way to the Moon's orbit? The Moon's orbit around the Earth will then be a result of the gravitational force, so the acceleration caused by gravity will shift the Moon's velocity enough to allow it to follow an orbit around the Earth.
Every object in the Universe attracts every other object with a force proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their separation directed along the line of centres for the two objects.
Fg = G m1m2/r2
m1 & m2 are the masses of two objects
r is the separation between the objects
G is the Universal Gravitational Constant
