1. The bodies are then plotted as they move according to the laws of gravitation . 2. This includes Newton's law of gravitation , and the relation between gravitational potential and field acceleration. 3. It was left to law of gravitation to finally explain the motions of the planets. 4. Similarly, when Newton discovered his law of gravitation , he was not simply accounting for his observations. 5. Departures from Newton's law of gravitation are governed by an acceleration scale, not a distance scale. 6. The law of gravitation can be written 7. It enabled the transition from Kepler's third law of planetary motion, to the inverse square law of gravitation . 8. In 1687, Isaac Newton published the " Newton's Law of Gravitation , which describes the fundamental force of gravity. 9. Kepler's Laws are a strict mathematical consequence of Newton's Law of Gravitation when one has only two point masses. 10. He also translated and edited a collection of memoirs on " The Laws of Gravitation " ( 1900 ).
