A. If the distance between two objects increases, the gravitational force between the objects will decrease.

B. If the distance between two objects decreases, the gravitational force between the objects will disappear.

C. If the distance between two objects increases, the gravitational force between the objects will increase.

D. If the distance between two objects decreases, the gravitational force between the objects will not change.

Answer 1

A. If the distance between two objects increases, the gravitational force between the objects will decrease.
