Which remains the same as the distance of an object from Earth changes?

Answer
A
size of the force
B
strength of gravity
C
mass of the object
D
weight of the object

Explanation

An object's mass is the amount of matter it contains, so it stays the same as the object moves farther from or closer to Earth. The strength of gravity, the gravitational force, and the object's weight can change with distance. Therefore, the correct choice is mass of the object.
