Answer:
So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases. If the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled. If the mass of one of the objects is tripled, then the force of gravity between them is tripled.

To Find :
- Change in gravitational force when masses of both objects are tripled
Solution :
Gravitational force between two maases m₁ and m₂ when the distance of seperation between them is r is given by ,
Where ,
- G is Gravitational constant
Let the original masses be m₁ and m₂ . Then the orginal gravitational force is ,
Now , masses of objects when they are tripled is 3m₁ and 3m₂ and distance is r (since no change in distance is mentioned). Substituting the new masses ;
Hence ,
- When the masses of objects are tripled keeping the distance between them constant the gravitational force becomes 9 times the original one.
