Tut tut! The given premise was that the attractive force of
gravity and the repulsion force would be EQUAL at a certain
point, when two large objects approach each other. At this point
they hover, not touching, suspended as it were at this distance
apart. Now, whether you call your primary number on either side
of the equation a distance or a field strength, for this premise
they must be EQUAL. Either you are representing an equal
distance, as this is the premise, or the field strength is equal
as this distance has been reached. In anycase, your equation does
NOT represent the math for the repulsion force. For one thing,
your math language lacks the words necessary for a proper
presentation.
