If the mass of one of two spheres increases, how does it affect the gravity between the two spheres?

Question

Multiple choice question.

A)
The gravity increases.

B)
The gravity decreases.

C)
The gravity fluctuates.

D)
The gravity is not affected.

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

A) The gravity increases.

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses. Thus, if the mass of one of the spheres increases, the gravitational force between the two spheres will also increase.
