Gravitational attraction depends on the mass of the objects as well as their distance. The gravitational force between objects increases as the masses of the objects increase. The gravitational force decreases as the distance between objects increases. The impact of mass and distance are not equal. If the mass of one object doubles, the gravitational force also doubles. If the distance between objects doubles, the gravitational force decreases by 1/4. Using the model predict what will happen to the gravitational force if the masses both double and the distance also doubles.
