why does the meduim does not affects gravitational constant "G"
The value of the gravitational constant G is approximately 6.674 × 10^-11 m^3/kg/s^2.
The gravitational constant G was first discovered by Sir Isaac Newton in the late 17th century through his theory of universal gravitation. It was later refined and measured more accurately by Henry Cavendish in the 18th century.
The gravitational constant G is important because it is a fundamental constant in physics that helps us understand the force of gravity between any two objects in the universe. It is also used in various equations and formulas, such as Newton's law of gravitation.
There is currently no evidence to suggest that the value of the gravitational constant G varies. However, some theories, such as string theory, propose that the value of G may be different in other universes or dimensions.
The gravitational constant G is measured through experiments involving the force of gravity between two masses. One of the most famous experiments is the Cavendish experiment, which uses a torsion balance to measure the gravitational force between two lead spheres.
