Answer:
✧ Gravitation ✧
the force of attraction that bodies exert on one another as a result of their mass. any process or result caused by this interaction, such as the fall of a body to the surface of the earth. Also called: gravity. See also Newton's law of gravitation.
✧ Gravitational Constant ✧
In SI units, G has the value 6.67 × 10-11 Newtons kg-2 m2. The direction of the force is in a straight line between the two bodies and is attractive. Thus, an apple falls from a tree because it feels the gravitational force of the Earth and is therefore subject to “gravity”.
