Answer: hi friend
So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases. ... Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces.
thanks
hope it helped you.,..,...

Answer:
Force of gravity decreases when distance between objects is increased.
Explanation:
- Gravity is a natural phenomenon through which every object with mass and energy is attracted towards each other by force. This is named as force of gravity.
- Law of gravitation is a universal law.
- According to this law, "Every object in this universe attracts every other object with a force of attraction that is directly proportional to the product of masses of both objects and inversely proportional to square of distance between them".
- Let and be masses of two objects separated by the distance r.
∝
∝
- Gravitational force can be expressed as:
Since, F is inversely proportional to r, so the force decreases as the distance increases.
