Question

if the masses of two objects are doubled and the distance between them is halved the gravitational force acting between them becomes 16 times as before.Why does this happen?

Answer 1

Hey MATE!


Sorry the image is not that much clear.

This must be your answer.

Hope it helps
Pls mark it brainliest :))

Answer 2

when mass is doubled and distance is halved gravitational force become 16 times as before because
mass is directly proportional to gravitational force and distance is inversely to gravitational force
so,
F=Gm_1m_2/r^2
F = G2*2/1/2^2
F=G 4/1/4
F=G 16
thus gravitational force increase by 16 times

hope it helps
