Answer 1

Answer:

Two factors effecting the magnitude of the force of gravity between 2 objects are the product of their masses and square of distance between them.

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation

              $F = G\frac{m_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} } }$

where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant and its value is 6.6743 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg₂ , m₁ and m₂ are masses of bodies and r is the distance between them.

It can be seen from the above equation that F is directly proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

                       F ∝ m₁m₂

                        F ∝ 1/r²

As far as the masses of the bodies increase, magnitude of the Gravitational force increases and if distance between them increase then Gravitational force between them decreases.
