Question

two heavenly the bodies of masses M and m separated by a distance of d exert a force F on each other, how would the force between these two heavenly bodies change if the distance of separation between them becomes 2d​

Answer 1

Answer:

According to Sir Newton's gravitational law the magnitude of gravitational force F between objects of mass m

now if the distance between them is doubled i.e. 2R ,then the gravitational force

now by using

′

=F/4

Answer 2

Answer:

the forces will be F=GMm/4d^2

Explanation:

because the two bodies will exerts gravitational force

initially at a distance d

F=GMm/d^2

when the distance between the two bodies changed to 2d

the attractive force become

F=GMm/4d^2

note those above expression based on Newton's universal law of gravitational.
