Question 5 • Physics I
The gravitational force follows F = Gm₁m₂/r², so it gets smaller if either object’s mass decreases or the distance between them increases. Decreasing the mass of one object (A) and decreasing the masses of both objects (F) reduce the force; increasing the distance (E) also reduces it. Increasing mass or decreasing distance would instead make the force stronger.
