Question

What happens to the gravitational force between two objects if they move CLOSER?

Answer 1

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}$

As we know ~

Gravitational Force acting on two objects can be easily represented by formula :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:F = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r²}$

so, from above we get :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:F \propto \dfrac{1}{r²}$

We can conclude from derived information that, Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the distance between the objects. so if the objects move closer to each other. value of r decreases. hence we can say that Gravitational force increases.

Therefore, the correct choice is A. It increases
