There is a force of attraction between everybody (which has
mass) in this universe. This force is called gravitational force. It means that,
the force due to which all the objects are being attracted to each other
towards their centre is known as Gravitational Force. The gravitational forces
are termed as gravity or gravitation. The force of attraction between two
bodies, in which one body is planet/satellite, is called gravity. For example:
the force between you and Earth, force between Earth and falling objects, the
Force between Earth and your friend, force of attraction between Jupiter and a
body close to it or near its surface, etc. Gravity is a special case of
gravitation where one body must be a planet/satellite. While the force of
attraction between any two objects in the universe is known as gravitation. For
example: force of attraction between Earth and Sun, force of attraction between
Jupiter and Earth, etc.
