Answer:

force increases

Explanation:

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that the force of attraction (gravity) acting between the Earth and all physical objects is directly proportional to the Earth's mass, directly proportional to the physical object's mass and inversely proportional to the square of the distance separating the Earth's center and that physical object.

According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, as the mass or one or both bodies increases, the force of attraction between the bodies increases.

Mathematically, this is given by the Newton's Second Law of Motion;

Force = mass * acceleration.
