Question

The strength of the gravitational attraction depends on the mass of the objects involved and on the distance between them. The gravitational force between two objects will be lowest in which of the following situations?

A. Both objects have small masses and are close together.

B. One object has a large mass, and the objects are close together.

C. Both objects have large masses and are close together.

D. Both objects have small masses, and they are far apart.

P.S. Whoever helps me with the answer, I will give them a medal and have everyone else give them one as well.

Answer 1

The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely to the distance between them. So if the object have small masses and the distance between them is large, what do you think will happen?

Answer 2

Did you understand what I just said?

Answer 3

Yes. So, the answer is 'B?'

Answer 4

Wait...no. The ACTUAL answer is 'D' right?

Answer 5

Do u still needs help?

Answer 6

Nope, if one object has a large mass..\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @LadyRavyRay
