...were. For instance, when we observe that two bodies always attract each other with a force varying directly as the product of their masses and inversely as the square of their distance apart, we call this fact the " law of gravitation " ; but when we go and deliberately aver that this law of... | |

...universal gravitation. Every particle of matter attracts every other particle with a force proportional to the product of their masses and inversely as the square of their distance apart. This law can be pretty clearly established for all bodies constituting the solar system; but it cannot... | |
