Either bring them closer together, or increase the mass of one or both of them... As in the case of the earth, and the moon - that would do it (and subsequently, kill us all)... Remember that we are about 4,000 miles from the center of the earth, standing on the ground at sea level... When you double that distance (from the earth's core center), you weight about 1/4 of what you did at sea level... And every doubling of your distance, will have the same net effect (1/4 the pull of gravity, at any point twice as far as the reference measurement)... (Jett Enterprises - Westlake, Ohio)

What affects the pull of the black hole?
The same as what affects the pull of other objects. The gravitational force between two objects depends on the mass of both objects, and on the distance between them.
How does the density of an object effect its gravitational pull on other objects example when a star's density increases its gravitational pull increases on other objects?
Mass, not density, and the closeness of objects, affects an object's gravitational pull. Density is not dependent on an object's size, but mass is. The more massive an object, and/or the closer an object is to another, the greater its gravitational pull.
If Earth increases its mass, how would that affect the gravitational pull a person experiences on Earth?
The gravitation pull will increase relative to the amount of increased mass. The Mass of the Objects The more mass two objects have, the greater the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled.
Why can you feel and see the effect of Earth's gravitational pull on you but you cannot feel or see the effect of you teacher's gravitational pull on you?
Gravitational pull is only noticeable for large objects, stars, planets, moons. Smaller objects just don't have enough mass to make much difference.
What evidence is there that the gravitational pull also pulls on objects closer to the surface of earth?
the objects fall to the ground
When Is the gravitational pull between two objects that have greater masses?
The gravitational pull is always present: there is no "when".
Does gravity increase or decrease when the distance increases between two objects?
Gravity decrease as you get farther, and every mass has gravitational pull.
Is there more gravitational force between objects with small masses or objects with large masses?
Objects of greater mass have more gravitational pull.
What two things do the amount of gravitational pull between two objects depend on?
The mass of the objects and the distance between the objects.
Why do you orbit?
Objects orbit because planets, stars, and other large objects in space have their own gravitational pull. If it gets close enough, it will be pulled toward the object with a gravitational pull. If it is at the edge of its gravitational pull field, it will be pulled, but not directly at it and instead increase the speed it is moving at
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.
What affects the pull of the black hole?
The same as what affects the pull of other objects. The gravitational force between two objects depends on the mass of both objects, and on the distance between them.
What is the gravitational pull of objects called?
Gravitational attraction.
What happens to the gravitational attraction between two objects if one or both objects acquires more mass?
As mass increases, so does the gravitational pull from the object.
What are the two factors that influence the gravitational pull between two objects?
Mass & distance.
What is the difference between the gravitational attraction of objects on earth and objects on the moon?
the difference between the gravitational pull on th eearth and moon is 1/6th. The gravitational pull on the earth is 6 times more than the garvitational pull of the moon. If some one weighs 36 kgs on earth then the weight on moon will be 6 kgs.
How does mass and distance the gravitational pull between objects?
More mass in the objects increases the strength of the mutual gravitationalforces between them, but more distance between them decreases it.
