1. How does the force of gravitation between two objects change
when the distance between them is reduced to half ?
2. Gravitational force acts on all objects in proportion to their​

Answer 1

Gravitatational Force ( F) = Gm1m2/r²

Where m1 is Mass if 1st object

m2 is mass of 2nd object

r is distance between

G is universal gravitaion constant ( Value I don't remember...you may google)

Now First question

F = Gm1m2/r²

If Distance is half... i.e, r = r/2

Hence

F2 = Gm1m2/(r/2)² = 4Gm1m2/r² = 4F

Hence force will increase by 4 times if distance between them is half

Now coming on second one...

As the formulae says so F is directly proportional to mass of both objects and inversely proportionsl to distance between

Hope it helps... mark as brainliest.....

Answer 2

Answer:

According to the law of gravitation, the force of attraction acting between two bodies is given by, Thus, when the distance between the objects is reduced to half the gravitational force increases by four times the original force.
