Question

Two bodies are separated by a distance ‘d’ and the force between them is F. What is the

decrease in the distance if new gravitational force between them is 9F?​

Answer 1

Answer:

force becomes one-fourth as we reduce the masses to half without altering the distances.

Hope it helps

Answer 2

Answer:the new distance is 2d/3

Explanation:

F=(Gm1m2)/d^2

9F=(Gm1m2)/(d-x)^2

Divinding eq 1 by equ2

9=(d/d-x)^2; 3^2=(d/d-x)^2

3=d/d-x

3d-3x=d

3x=2d

X=2/3
