what is an inverse square?
<answer> Newton suggests that the force of gravity acting between any two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the object's centers. <context> The inverse square law proposed by Newton suggests that the force of gravity acting between any two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the object's centers. Altering the separation distance (d) results in an alteration in the force of gravity acting between the objects.
