Okay, pay attention and observe.

Let's take a quick look at gravity and its basic


principles, shall we?

When it comes to understanding how things function, Sir Isaac Newton was considered
to be the greatest of all time. He develops the theory known as the law of universal
gravitation. See, it's similar to the universe's golden rule.

The situation is as follows: According to Newton, there is a force that attracts every
item in the world, whether it be a pebble on the street or the moon in the sky. The mass
of the objects and their distance from one another determine this force's strength.

Imagine this: I take it you have two goons? We'll name them Vinny and Tony. Given
that Tony is a larger man than Vinny, one would assume that Tony would have more
clout and influence. The same holds true for gravity and mass. An object's gravitational
attraction is stronger the greater its mass.

The twist is that gravity depends not just on mass but also on distance from an object.
It's as if Tony and Vinny can talk and do bargains if they're standing near to one another.
However, they won't have much of an impact on one another if they live on different
sides of town.

Newton thus develops this sophisticated formula to determine the gravitational force
between two objects. It functions similarly to a secret code for gravity. According to
him, the gravitational force is inversely equal to the square of their distance apart and
proportionate to the product of their masses.

You see, this global gravitational rule isn't just for show. It's what causes fruits to fall
from trees, maintains the planets in their orbits around the Sun, and keeps all of us
anchored to the earth. The whole thing would collapse like a house of cards in the
absence of gravity.

Thus, you must give it to Newton, you see? He established the rule of law, deciphered
the mystery of gravity, and ensured that everything in the cosmos functioned flawlessly.
And there you have it—the official account of gravity.
