What effect does distance have on the force of gravity?

A - Increasing the distance between two objects increases the gravitational force.

B - Decreasing the distance between two objects decreases the gravitational force.

C - Increasing the distance between two objects decreases the gravitational force.

D - Distance is not a factor in determining the force of gravity.

Respuesta :

Answer:

C - Increasing the distance between two objects decreases the gravitational force.

Explanation:

The force of gravity depends on the objects' mass (m₁ and m₂) and distance between the objects' centers of gravity (r), as described by Newton's law of gravitation:

F = G m₁ m₂ / r²

Increasing the distance r decreases the gravitational force F.

Answer:

The answer is increasing the distance between two objects decreases the gravitational force. which is C
