Answer:

It encapsulates the idea that all the particles of matter in the universe attract each other through the force of gravity

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's law tells us how strong that attraction is. ... Newton filled in that gap by supposing there was a force acting between the bodies that were moving around each other

Newton's laws of motion are important because they are the foundation of classical mechanics, one of the main branches of physics. Mechanics is the study of how objects move or do not move when forces act upon them. A lesson proving immovable objects and unstoppable forces are one and the same.
