Question

The gravitational force between two objects is 2 N. What will be the gravitational force between these objects if the dictance between them becomes double ?​

Answer 1

Gravitational force between two objects is inversely proportional to square of the distance between the two objects.So,force becomes one fourth of original force.

Hence, answer is 2/4=0.5N, hope you understood

Answer 2

Answer:

We know that,

F = GMm/ R²

Now, if R' = 2R, then

F' =GMm / (R') ²

F' = GMm / (2R) ²

F' =1/4 F

here, F = 2 N

So, F ' =1/2=0.5 N
