Question

71. If the distance between two masses is increased
by a factor of 5, by what factor would the mass
of one of them have to be altered to maintain
the same gravitational force ? Would this be an
increase or decrease in the mass ?

solve it correctly​

Answer 1

Answer:

Gravitational force is given by:

F=G×

d

2

m×M

Distance between two masses is increased s.t. new distance is D= 5 d

New gravitational force F

1

=F

Let on of the mass is changed to m

1

so as to maintain the same gravitational force.
