After reading this whole question, I feel like I've already earned 5 points !
-- Two satellites at the same distance, different masses:
The forces of gravity between two objects are directly proportional to the product of the objects' masses. In other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth and an object on its surface are proportional to the mass of the object. In other words, people with more mass weigh more on the Earth, and the Earth weighs more on them.
If the satellites are both at the same distance from Earth, then the Earth pulls on the one with more mass with greater force, and also the one with more mass pulls on the Earth with greater force.
-- Two satellites with the same mass, at different distances:
The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. In other words, the gravitational
forces between the Earth and an object are inversely proportional
to the square of the distance between the object and the center of the Earth.
If
the satellites both have the same mass, then the Earth
pulls on the nearer one with greater force, and also the nearer one pulls on the Earth with greater force.
-- Resistor in a circuit when the voltage changes:
The resistance depends on how the resistor was manufactured. Its resistance is marked on it, and doesn't change. It remains the same whether the voltage changes, the current changes, the time of day changes, the cost of oil changes, etc.
If you increase the voltage in the circuit where that resistor is installed, the current through the resistor increases. If the current remains constant, then you can be sure that somebody snuck over to your circuit when you weren't looking, and they either installed another resistor in series with the original one to make the total resistance bigger, or else they snipped the original one out of the circuit and quickly connected one with more resistance in its place.
