Consider Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation: FG= G (m1 m2)/d2 .
bixtya [17]

Answer:

C

Mass is directly proportional to the Force of Gravity. If Mass increases, then the Force of Gravity increases; however, Distance is indirectly (or inversely) proportional to the Force of Gravity. If Distance increases, then the Force of Gravity decreases.

Explanation:

The formula for the force of gravity between two objects is

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{d^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

d is the separation between the two objects

We notice the  following:

- F is directly proportional to the masses, F\propto m_1, m_2. This means that if one of the masses increases, then the force between them, F, increases in a proportional way

- F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, F\propto \frac{1}{d^2}. This means that if the distance between the two objects is increased, the force between them will decrease, and vice-versa.

So, the correct answer is

C

Mass is directly proportional to the Force of Gravity. If Mass increases, then the Force of Gravity increases; however, Distance is indirectly (or inversely) proportional to the Force of Gravity. If Distance increases, then the Force of Gravity decreases.
