Newton's universal law of gravitation can be stated as the force F of gravitation between two objects varies jointly as the masses m, and m, of the objects, and Gm,m2 inversely as the square of the distance r between their centers, where G is the constant of proportionality. In other words, F = The weight of an object is the force F on the object due to gravity, where F = mg. State how g (the acceleration due to gravity) varies with respect to the mass m, of the spherical body on which the object lies, and the radius of that body (assume all of the mass is at its center.). The acceleration due to gravity, g, varies as the spherical body's mass, and as
