Does the gravitational attraction between earth and an asteroid decrease as the asteroid approaches earth?

The gravitational force (or attraction) between any two objects increases as the distance between them decreases. Thus, as an asteroid approaches Earth, the Earth's gravitational pull will increase as it gets nearer.

How uric acid decrease?
If you need to decrease the uric acid in your blood, that is done by eating less protein. Uric acid is a byproduct of protein digestion.
Is this normative or positve.A decrease in the price of digital cameras will decrease the demand for camera film?
The answer is positive statement:A positive statement is a statement about what isand that contains no indication of approval or disapproval. A normative statement expresses a judgment about whether a situation is desirable or undesirable.A decrease in the price of digital cameras will decrease the demand for camera film?This statement is simply a statement about what isand cannot be construed to be a judgment and so cannot be a normative statement.
Does the gravitational attraction on an object increase or decrease with and increase in altitude?
it makes no difference you will still weigh the same
What effect would decreasing the mass of two object have on gravitational attraction between them?
The gravitational attraction between two objects is proportional to the product oftheir two masses. So if you decrease the mass of either one, the force decreases,and if you decrease the masses of both of them then the force by George decreasesfor two separate reasons.
If Neptune's mass were reduced what could be done to maintain the same force of gravitational attraction between Neptune and the Sun?
Decrease the distance between Neptune and the sun
What two objects increase when gravitational force decrease?
Gravity is the force of attraction between all masses in the universe.The magnitude of a gravitational force depends onthe masses of the objectsthe distance between the objectsThe gravitational force between two bodies increases as their masses increase.
If the distance between two objects is increase the gravitational force will?
the gravitational force will decrease
Why does a ball gets lower and lower when it bounces'?
The greater the gravitational potential energy the more the kinetic energy, so as it bounces, the gravitational potential energy will decrease, so will the kinetic energy decrease and everything will decrease and they will suck
Gravity decreases according to which law?
Gravity doesn't decrease. It follows the same simple mathematical formula at all distances.The mutual gravitational force of attraction between two mass objects decreases according tothe inverse square law.
Does atmospheric pressure increase or decrease under sea level?
It increases. The lower you go, the more mass there is in the column of air (or water) above you. The earth's gravitational attraction pulls that column downward. In a fluid, the pressure is equal in all directions.
Does the increase between two objects increase or decrease the gravitational force between them?
At a greater distance, the gravitational force becomes less.
If the moon were 5 times farther from earth the gravitational force from earth would be?
The gravitational force is 'mutual' ... both of the bodies involved experience equal forces toward the other.In the gravitational attraction between the earth and you, the earth is attracted toward you with a forceequal to your weight.If the earth and moon were five times as far apart as they are today, the force on each toward the otherwould decrease to (1/52) = (1/25th) = 4% of what it is today.
How could one decrease the gravitational force between a planet and an object orbiting the planet?
Gravitational force depends only on the masses involved, and on the distance. Thus, to DECREASE the gravitational force, you would have to reduce the mass of the planet or the object (take some stuff away from it); or increase the distance.
Does the gravitational force decrease as distance between two objects increase?
Yes it does.
