Question
Define the constant of gravitation.
✓

Answer

We know that law of gravitation.
$F = G ( m_1Xm_2)/R^2.$
Here G is universal constant and is called constant of gravitation. It doesnot depend upon on the value of $m_1,m_2$​​​​​​​ or R.
Its value is same between any two objects in the universe.
