According to newtons formula;

force F=G*m1*m2/(r^2) ,for 2 bodies facing each others gravitational pull

When divided both sides by m1,so

gravitational acceleration g=m2*g/(r^2)

so

g is directly proportional to mass of the body....

How does inertia affect gravity?

Inertia does not affect gravity, these are two entirely separate things, even though they both are produced by the same thing, which is mass. Mass creates both inertia and gravity, but inertia and gravity do not affect each other.


How does changing mass affect the force of gravity?

Force of gravity = mass x acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2) Increase in mass = increase in gravity
