neptune's gravitational effect on the orbit of uranus
Neptune was discovered in 1846 through observations of Uranus. Uranus' orbit was seen to appear to alter slightly through the gravitational effect of another planet, which turned out to be Neptune.
Gravitational pull is only noticeable for large objects, stars, planets, moons. Smaller objects just don't have enough mass to make much difference.
nothing
no. Edit: It depends what you mean by noticeable, of course. Astronomers have very accurate ways of measuring orbits these days and the effect will be measurable, I'm sure. But it probably isn't very important.

If the objects are not tied together, and if the gravitational forces between them are negligible in their current environment, then the distance between them has no effect whatsoever on their motion.
If there is more mass, there will be more gravitational attraction.
Yes. At a greater distance, the gravitational attraction between two objects is less.

Gravitational forces between objects depend only on their masses and the distance between them. Velocity has no effect.
The effect of dubling the massesa and halving the distance is to increase the gravitational force by a factor of 16.
The larger the mass of either object, the greater the gravitational force.

the gravitational attraction would increase, because the more mass something has the more gravitational pull it has.
Mass and distance.
