Answer: the object should be overcome by buoyancy and rise in the fluid.
Explanation:
If the distance between two objects decrease and the masses of the objects remain the same, then the force of gravity between the two objects
<u>Answer:</u>
increases
Explanation:
The formula of gravitational force is given as:
F=G Mm/r^2
G = gravitational constant
M, m = Masses of two different objects in which the force is acting.
r = distance between both the objects.
As we can see from the formula that the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between both objects.
When the distance between both objects with the same masses decreases the gravitational force between them increases. Hence the correct answer is option B.

Answer:
The surface gravity g of the planet is 1/4 of the surface gravity on earth.
Explanation:
Surface gravity is given by the following formula:

So the gravity of both the earth and the planet is written in terms of their own radius, so we get:


The problem tells us the radius of the planet is twice that of the radius on earth, so:

If we substituted that into the gravity of the planet equation we would end up with the following formula:

Which yields:

So we can now compare the two gravities:

When simplifying the ratio we end up with:

So the gravity acceleration on the surface of the planet is 1/4 of that on the surface of Earth.
