how does the gravitational force between two objects change if the mass of one of the objects is doubled

Respuesta :

Answer:

If the mass of both of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is quadrupled; and so on. Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces.

Answer : The gravitational force is also doubled.

Explanation :

Gravitational force : The gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the two object and an inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two object.

The gravitational force (F) between the two object masses (M) and (m) and the distance between the two object (r) is given by the equation,

[tex]F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}[/tex]

where,

G = gravitational constant

As we know that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of an object.

When the mass of one object is doubled then the gravitational force is also doubled.

Therefore, the gravitational force is also doubled.
