What happens to the force of attraction if one of the masses of the object double?
The force too gets doubled as force is proportional to the mass of each object.
What is it when an equal force is on each side of an object?
Resistance
What happens between objects when one object exerts a force on another object?
There is a force exerted on each object of equal yet opposite sign and direction.
What happens if one object exerts a force on another?
there is a force exerted on each object of equal yet opposite sign and direction
Why is the acceleration due to gravity the same for a brick and a sponge?
Because the acceleration depends on the gravitational force on the object. But the gravitational force on the object depends on its mass ... More mass = more force. Objects with less mass have less force on them, and objects with more mass have more force on them, and the force on each object is exactly enough so that each object winds up falling with the same acceleration.

Do action and reaction forces cancel each other?
Yes and no. They are equal in size and opposite in direction, but they are NOT exerted onto the same object. Each object exerts exactly one force and each object RECEIVES exactly one force. With only one force being exerted onto each object, there is nothing to be cancelled on each single object. Thus, they do not cancel, they simply exert themselves on different objects.

What force brings 2 points on an object closer to each other?
magnetic force

A force that pulls objects toward each other is called?
gravity is a force that pulls object toward each other
Force exerted by objects on every other object?
It is called gravity, which is defined as the pulling force of an object. Each planet has their own gravity.
Will an object have any weight if there is no gravitational force acting on it?
Gravitational "force" acts between two objects. Each object "feels" the same force pulling it toward the other object. You and the earth are pulled toward each other, by a force that's called your "weight". Your weight on earth is the same as earth's weight on you. If there is only one object in the whole universe, and no other object exists, then the object that exists has no weight, because there is no gravitational force between two objects. But if there are two or more objects in the universe, then every two of them are attracted to each other, and the force between any two objects is called the "weight" of each object on the other one. That's as plain as I can make it. Can anyone hear me out there ?
What do you have to do get forces acting on an object to get you net force?
a girl and a boy are pulling heavy crate at the same time with 10 units of force each . what is the net force acting on ythe object?
What is an overall force acting on an object?
The overall force acting on an object is the sum of all of the forces acting on it. This is usually easy to work out if you remember that force is a vector so direction of each force has to be taken into account.
