Consider the law of gravitational attraction. Two spheres with a mass, M, are attracted to each other by a force, F. If the distance between the two spheres doubles while the masses remain constant, will the force between the two spheres change? If yes, how?

My answer is: Yes, the force will be weaker.

This is one of the questions where I don't have to go into detail it's just a little short answer. Am I right? Just a quick yes or no. Thank you!
