Kepler, around 1600, upon his meticulous observations and measurements, had established a remarkable relationship between the revolution period T of a planet around the Sun, and the distance R of it to the Sun, as T2-R3. Show, how Newton about a century later, could, not only derive this relationship, as (with the familiar notation), T2=[(4π2/GM]R3, but also, could fix Kepler’s “proportionality constant”, thusly becoming 4π2/GM. The quantity G, is the gravitation constant, and M is the mass of the Sun....
