Respuesta :
The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled. increases, the force of gravity decreases.
Answer:
Force due to gravity increases on increasing the masses and decreases on decreasing the masses.
Explanation:
The force due to gravity (F) acting between any two given bodies can be expressed as,
[tex]F = G\frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2}}[/tex]
Here,
G = gravitational constant
[tex]m_{1}[/tex] = mass of the first body
[tex]m_{2}[/tex] = mass of the second body
[tex]r =[/tex] separation between the bodies
It is clear from the above expression that the force due to gravity acting between the two bodies is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the bodies.
