How come nobody's answered that yet?

Anyway, the m^1 that you wrote is wrong, and even if it were correct, it would be meaningless (anything raised to the first power is itself, rendering the ^1 a redundant and superfluous waste of space) The formula is F(g) = [Gm1m2/(r^2)]<r>
Notice the use of r instead of d. You will learn more about this when you get into advanced multivariable vector calculus that deals with spherical coordinates. The r arises because forces are DIRECTIONAL, not only magnitudinal. The inverse of the magnitude of the distance is something you intended to include, but you forgot the direction, which can only be accounted for if you multiply the whole thing by the unit vector <r>. So if you are going to do this correctly, why have a d^2 followed by a <r>? You wouldn't, of course, because d and r are really the same thing, but <r> certainly is not.
I think some people don't actually get that the answers don't have to be sensible

Actually, not at all, mine are unemployed. They do not go to work anyway, they just hide inside my body. Pretty lazy fellows, I should have a talk with them.How do nerves work?
Edit: Oh, I just had a little talk with them, they say they have a job in the harbour, driving forklifts. I don't know if they can be trusted, though.

OK, I got a really tricky question for you. 
What do you think humans had looked like if God had been drunk (OK; let's assume he wasn't) when he created us?
And, yeah, let's just for this once believe that God does exist.

Well, I don't think I'll win the price

And the only windows version with letters instead of numbers (well, until XP ...) are windows CE, ME and NT. Seeing that, the developers of a certain kind of mice decided to make them of cement
They got that popular that other manufacturers of mice became jealous and made their mice also of cement. This is why you can say that mice are made of cement
