Question 940384: The gravitational force F between two
spherical objects, having mass m1
and m2 respectively, varies jointly with
respect to m1 and m2 and inversely
with respect to the square of the
distance d between the two objects.

If F varies directly with m%5B1%5D ,
then F has m%5B1%5D as a factor.
If F varies directly with m%5B2%5D ,
then F has m%5B2%5D as a factor.
If F varies inversely with d%5E2 ,
then F has 1%2Fd%5E2 as a factor.

If F does all of the above,
the product of all remaining factors can be called G , and then
F=G%2Am%5B1%5D%2Am%5B2%5D%2A%281%2Fd%5E2%29 <---> F=G%2Am%5B1%5D%2Am%5B2%5D%2Fd%5E2
