Question

The gravitational force between two objects is F. If masses of both objects are doubled and the distance between them is also doubled, then the gravitational force would become :-

(a)F/4 (b)4F (c)F (d)16F

Give correct answer with true explanation​

Answer 1

Answer:

ANSWER

(a) F/4

Explanation: Gravitational force between two objects varies directly as their masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them. So, when the masses of both objects are halved without changing the distance, the gravitational force between them would become one-fourth of the original value.
