Answer: (i) If the mass of one object is tripled, then the force between the two objects will also be tripled.
(ii) If the distance between the objects is tripled, then the corresponding force will be one ninth of the force.
(iii) If the masses of both objects are tripled, then the force will increase by nine times.
Explanation: Gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.
