Question

True or False: As the mass of an object increases, so does its gravitational field. This gravitational field does not pull in all directions with the same strength

Answer 1

True. As the mass of an object increases, its gravitational field strength also increases. The gravitational field around an object is not uniform; it varies depending on the distance from the mass. The gravitational field strength decreases with distance from the mass, meaning it is stronger closer to the object and weaker further away. Moreover, the gravitational field pulls objects towards the mass, but the strength of this pull does differ based on the direction and distance from the mass.
