Increase mass, increase gravity. Increase distance, decrease gravity (although you never reach zero). The formula for calculating force of gravity is:

Fg=(G*m1*m2)/d^2

where Fg is force of gravity, G is the universal gravity constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects, and d is the distance between the two objects

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 the force of graviti change with mass and distance?

as distance increases gravity's force decreases as mass increases gravity's force increases


Is gravity affected by mass amd distance or mass and force?

What force increase distance and mass?

Gravity.


How is the relationship between the force of gravity the mass of objects and the distance between objects described?

The more massive the mass, the larger the force of gravity The further the distance, the smaller the force of gravity, however gravity is infinite so no matter how far away from any size mass an object is it will always feel the force of gravity from that mass


How do the changes in mass and distance effect the force of gravity?

Bigger masses mean a bigger force of gravity. Bigger distances mean smaller forces. Mathematically, the force is directly proportional to the product of the masses, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance.


How do mass of the objects affect the force of gravity?

The greater the mass, the stronger the gravity, but the distance does not affect the amount of gravity.


Variation in the value of gravity?

Mass and distance alter gravity Mass is directly proportional to the gravitational force, but distance is inversely proportional. (In other words, greater mass means greater force, and greater distance means less force)


What factors affect the force of the gravity?
