Question

What happens the gravitational force between the two objects if the seperation is doubled in a force of atraction is?

Answer 1

hello friend ...!!

• According to the question, the separation between the object is doubled implies that the distance is doubled .

• we know,

$f \: \: = \: \frac{gm1m2}{ {r}^{2} }$


when r = 2r we get,

$f 1\: \: = \: \frac{gm1m2}{ 4{r}^{2} }$
implies,


f1 = ( f / 4 )

therefore,

the force of attraction decreases four times the original gravitational force between the two objects.
