In the law of universal gravitation, Newton assumed that the force was proportional to the product of the two masses (m1m2) . While all scientific conjectures must be experimentally verified, can you provided arguments as to why this must be? (You may wish to consider simple examples in which any other form would lead to contradictory results.)
