Responses
If the mass of one object increases while the mass of the other object remains the same, then the gravitational attraction increases.
If the mass of one object increases while the mass of the other object remains the same, then the gravitational attraction increases.
If the mass of both objects increases by the same amount, then the gravitational attraction decreases.
If the mass of both objects increases by the same amount, then the gravitational attraction decreases.
If the mass of one object increases while the mass of the other object remains the same, then the gravitational attraction remains the same.
