Answer:

A

Explanation:

The force of gravity between two objects is dependent on the masses of the two objects and the distance between them.

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the gravitational force of attraction (F) between two objects with mass m1 and m2 separated by a distance (r) varies directly as the product of the masses and inversely as the square of the distance separating them.

Mathematically,

[tex]F=G{\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}}[/tex] where G is the gravitational constant.

The correct option is, therefore, A.
