Going to college and passing all your classes
Dependant variable is something which you MEASURE during an experiment
So your answer would be : B
Solution :
When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.
The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.
Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.
