Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of distance between the objects.

If the distance is made three times,

The force of gravitation will become 1/3² times i.e. 1/9 times


drseemabansal: What will be the answer in percentage?
drseemabansal: Its answer is given that it will decrease by 89%..... how?
dhritimansinhaa: 1/9th times is 11%(approx)
dhritimansinhaa: So decrease is 100-11=89%
