Answer:
In SI units, G has the value 6.67 × 10-11 Newtons kg-2 m2. The acceleration g=F/m1 due to gravity on the Earth can be calculated by substituting the mass and radii of the Earth into the above equation and hence g= 9.81 m s-2.

Answer:
From Newton's universal law of gravitation,
F=(G×m1×m2)/d2
where F = gravitational force
G = universal gravitational constant
m1 = mass of the first object
m2 = mass of the second object
d = distance between the objects
Hence, universal gravitational constant, G=(F×d2)/(m1×m2)
Unit of F = newton (N)
Unit of d = metre (m)
Unit of m1 = Unit of m2 = kilogram (kg)
Hence, unit of G = Nm2/kg2 (newton metre squared per kilogram squared).
