Gravity is greater when there is Answer equal mass and more distance between two objects. less mass and less distance between two objects. more mass and less distance between two objects. more mass and more distance between objects.
more mass and less distance between two objects
The gravitational force between two given masses is calculated by: \[\Large g = G\frac{{{m_1}{m_2}}}{{{r^2}}}\] Where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 the two masses, and r the distance between their centres. This shows that as either mass increases, the gravitational force increases; or as the distance increases, the gravitational force decreases exponentially. Thus, as already given, more mass and less distance = greater gravitational force.
