If the mass of an object doubles, the gravitational force between it and another object will
. If the distance between two objects doubles, the gravitational force between them will

1 answer

If the mass of an object doubles, the gravitational force between it and another object will also double. If the distance between two objects doubles, the gravitational force between them will be reduced to a quarter (1/4) of the original force.

So, to summarize:

  1. If the mass of an object doubles, the gravitational force will double.
  2. If the distance between two objects doubles, the gravitational force will be reduced by a factor of four (1/4).
