Answer:

Cavendish expressed his result in terms of the density of the Earth; he referred to his experiment in correspondence as 'weighing the world'. Later authors reformulated his results in modern terms. G = 6.74×10−11 m³ kg–1 s−2, ... Then, since R-earth was known, ρ-earth played the role of an inverse gravitational constant.

Explanation:

Henry Cavendish performed an experiment to find the density of the Earth. Other scientists used his experimental setup to determine the value of G. The setup consisted of a torsion balance to attract lead balls together, measuring the torque on a wire and then equating it to the gravitational force between the balls.

Hope it will help you...
