Question

After the big bang, atoms in gas clouds experienced a greater gravitational pull to each other than atoms in other regions of the universe. Which two statements are scientific facts that explain this phenomenon?
Gravitational pull on an object decreases with a decrease in its temperature.
As the density of an object increases, it becomes immune to gravitational force.
Gravitation between two objects increases when the distance between them decreases.
Gravity doesn’t exist between objects that are less than one light-year apart.
When the mass of an object increases, its gravitational pull also increases.

Answer 1

Answer:
These are the two statements with scientific facts that explain the described phenomenon

Gravitation between two objects increases when the distance between them decreases.

When the mass of an object increases, its gravitational pull also increases.

Justification:

Those two facts are represented in the Universal Law of Gravity discovered by the scientific Sir Isaac Newton (1642 to 1727) and published in his book Philosophiae naturalis principia mathematica.

That law is represented by the equation:

F = G × m₁ × m₂ / d²

The product of the two masses on the numerator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses, which is that as the masses increase the attraction also increase.

The term d² (square of the distance that separates the objects) in the denominator accounts for the fact that the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance; that is as the separation of the objects increase the gravitational force decrease.
