I am trying to relate an object temperature as a function of time using Stefan's Law. Newton's law of cooling is,
\frac{dT}{dt}\; =\; k\left( T-R \right)
Where T is temp, t is time, k is a constant, and R is the temperature of the surroundings. Stefan's Law is,
P\; =\; e\sigma AT^{4}...

Newton's Law of Gravitation Derivative
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me find the derivative of Newton's Law of gravitation [F=(GmM)/r^2] and what it means? What does the minus sign indicate?
I'm kind of confused on the subject at hand and hopefully someone can help out.
Thanks
