Question

The gravitational force between two particles separated by a distance r varies as __________


(A) 1/r


(B) r
(C) r²


(D)
1/r²​

Answer 1

Answer:

A gravitational force between two particles separated by a distance r inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. It is clear that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
