gravitational constant [‚grav·ə′tā·shən·əl ′kän·stənt]

(mechanics)

The constant of proportionality in Newton's law of gravitation, equal to the gravitational force between any two particles times the square of the distance between them, divided by the product of their masses. Also known as constant of gravitation.
