Directions: Use the picture below of objects at different distances apart to answer the question.
1 is 10 g on each side pointing to each other and they are far apart
2 is 10 g on each side pointing to each other and they are close together
3 is 2 g on each side pointing to each other and they are close together
4 is 2 g on each side pointing to each other and they are far apart
Which of the pictures shows the least gravitational force and why?
(1 point)

The correct answer is:
**Picture IV because the objects have smaller mass and larger distance between them.**
This is because gravitational force depends on both the masses of the objects and the distance between them. According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force is directly proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. In Picture IV, both the masses (2 g) are smaller compared to the other pictures, and they are also further apart, leading to the least gravitational force.
