The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
If the mass of one of the objects is doubled while the distance remains the same, the gravitational force will become twice as strong.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
D) It becomes twice as strong
There are two objects close to each other. If the mass of one of the objects is doubled while the distance remains the same, how does the gravitational force change?
