Which statement best describes the gravitational force of an object?

Question

Responses

The farther away an object is, the greater its gravitational force will be.

The greater the object’s mass, the less its gravitational force will be.

The object only has gravitational force when it is on the surface of a massive body, such as Earth.

The greater the object’s mass and the closer it is, the greater its gravitational force.

Answer 1

The statement that best describes the gravitational force of an object is:

"The greater the object’s mass and the closer it is, the greater its gravitational force."

This statement reflects the fundamental principles of gravity, where larger masses exert stronger gravitational forces, and the strength of the gravitational force decreases with increased distance between objects.
