Question

FOR PRACTICE
1. The gravitational force between two objects is 100 N. How should the distance between these objects be
changed so that force between them becomes 50 N ?
[Ans. V2 times ]

Answer 1

Answer:

So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. If the separation distance between two objects is doubled (increased by a factor of 2), then the force of gravitational attraction is decreased by a factor of 4 (2 raised to the second power).
