What is the force of attraction between objects depending on mass and distance?
Gravitational force is dependent on mass and distance.
What 3 factors can change the force of gravity?
The force of gravity between any two objects depends on . . . -- the mass of the first object -- the mass of the second object -- the distance between their centers of mass.
How can the mass and distance increase or desrease the gravitational force?
More mass --> more gravitational force Greater distance --> less gravitational force
What if mass stays the same and distance increases?
The force of gravity between two objects will decrease in proportion to the square of the change of distance between them.
How do mass and distance effect the force of gravity?
gravitational force is directly proportional to mass ie it increases with the increase in mass. it is indirectly proportional to distance ie it decreases with the increase in distance.
How does a knife change the force or the distance?
The object's mass and weight determines the force and distance, the greater the force, the less distance it covers. However, when a knife cuts the object, it covers less force and more distance.
Does the mass of an object change as the distance of gravity changes?
No, the measured weight of an object WILL change but the mass of an object will never change regardless of the gravitational force on object.
Is gravity affected by mass amd distance or mass and force?
mass and distance
What is the force of attraction between objects depending on mass and distance?
Gravitational force is dependent on mass and distance.
What does force divided by distance equal?
Work is force times distance. A Force divided by Distance: looking at the units, Force = newtons = kg m / s^2 = mass x length / time^2 so ML/T^2 Distance = m = length so L Force/Distance = (ML/T^2)/L = ML/LT^2 = M/T^2 So the units of a force divided by distance are mass/ time^2 This would be the rate of change of mass change with respect to time.
What 3 factors can change the force of gravity?

As the mass of two objects increases how does the gravitational force between the two bodies change?
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.
How can the mass and distance increase or desrease the gravitational force?
More mass --> more gravitational force Greater distance --> less gravitational force
What if mass stays the same and distance increases?
The force of gravity between two objects will decrease in proportion to the square of the change of distance between them.
What of the changes below would increase the force of Earth's gravity on an object?
The only way to change anythings gravity is to change its' mass. (apex) Increase the mass of the object Decrease the distance of the object from Earth
What two things determine the size of a gravitational force?
Mass and distance. Greater the mass the more force the closer the distance the more force as well
How do you work out force if theres a mass and distance?
If the mass is already moving, then no force is required to move it any desired distance,and if it's not moving, then any force will start it moving. We'll say that there's no definiterelationship between force, mass, and distance.
