Question

If distance'r' between two objects is increased by 6 times ,how does the gravitatational force is affected

Answer 1

hby a square of 6 because force is inverse proportional to the squares of distance therefore gravity decreases

Explanation:

gravitational force Gmm\dd

when distance is increased 6 times

distance=6d

gravitational force =Gmm\36dd

hence it is affected by a square of 1/6×6
