Only the masses of the objects and the distance between them. Nothing else affects the gravitational forces. Not even a concrete, steel, and Kryptonite wall between them.

distance between objects

masses of the objects

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

By looking at the formula, we see that the gravitational force is affected only by two quantities:

- the masses of the objects, m1 and m2

- the distance between the objects, r
