Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

1/2 N

Explanation:

F = Gm1m2/d²

when distance is doubled then,

F1 = Gm1m2/4d²

F1 = 1/4 ( Gm1m2/d²)

F1= 1/4*2

F1 = 1/2 N

Answer 2

Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

Gravitational force=2N

distance=2D

F=2NM1M2/D^2

-----------1

F'=GM1M2/2D^2

-----------2Gm1m2/4d^2

From 1and2

F'/F

Gm1m2/4d^2/2,m1m2/d^2

G=1/2
