  3. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_constant

    For this purpose, the Gaussian gravitational constant was historically in widespread use, k = 0.017 202 098 95 radians per day, expressing the mean angular velocity of the Sun–Earth system. [citation needed] The use of this constant, and the implied definition of the astronomical unit discussed above, has been deprecated by the IAU since 2012.

    To make this into an equal-sided formula or equation, there needed to be a multiplying factor or constant that would give the correct force of gravity no matter the value of the masses or distance between them (the gravitational constant). Newton would need an accurate measure of this constant to prove his inverse-square law.

  6. Gaussian gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Gaussian_gravitational_constant

    The astronomical unit of length is that length (A) for which the Gaussian gravitational constant (k) takes the value 0.017 202 098 95 when the units of measurement are the astronomical units of length, mass and time. The dimensions of k 2 are those of the constant of gravitation (G), i.e., T −2 L 3 M −1.

  7. Natural units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units

    In physics, natural unit systems are measurement systems for which selected physical constants have been set to 1 through nondimensionalization of physical units.For example, the speed of light c may be set to 1, and it may then be omitted, equating mass and energy directly E = m rather than using c as a conversion factor in the typical mass–energy equivalence equation E = mc 2.

  8. Standard gravitational parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_gravitational...

    The standard gravitational parameter μ of a celestial body is the product of the gravitational constant G and the mass M of that body. For two bodies, the parameter may be expressed as G(m 1 + m 2), or as GM when one body is much larger than the other: = (+).

  9. Gravimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravimetry

    The "force constant" is just the coefficient of the displacement term in the equation of motion: m a + b v + k x + constant = F(X,t) m mass, a acceleration, b viscosity, v velocity, k force constant, x displacement F external force as a function of location/position and time. F is the force being measured, and ⁠ F / m ⁠ is the acceleration.
