(N/A) One common phenomenon related to the universal law of gravitation is the motion of planets around the Sun. According to Newton's law of universal gravitation,every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This gravitational force provides the necessary centripetal force that keeps planets in their respective orbits around the Sun.
