What happens to the gravitational force between two objects if the mass of one of the objects is decreased?

The gravitational forces between two objects are proportional to the product
of the two masses. So if either mass decreases and the distance between the
objects doesn't change then the gravitational forces between them also decrease.

What happens to the gravitation force between two objects if the distance between them is dicreased?
In this case, the gravitational force increases.
What happens to the gravitational force between objects getting farther away A. it increases B. it decreases?
Decreases.
What happens to the gravitational force between objects of the mass either or both objects increased?
Gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses. So as mass is increased then force too increases
Is there more gravitational force between objects with small masses or objects with large masses?
Objects of greater mass have more gravitational pull.
Is the greater an objects velocity the stronger the gravitational force on it?
Gravitational forces between objects depend only on their masses and the distance between them. Velocity has no effect.
What happens to the force if the distance between 2 objects is decreased?
Gravitational force would increase as distance is decreased. Because force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance
What happens to the gravitational force between two objects reduced?
The gravitational force will get less if you move the objects further apart.
What happend to the gravitational force between two objects if the distance between them is decreased?
The gravitational force that one object exerts on another will decrease in magnitude. In the formula for gravitational force, the force is inversely proportional to the square of distance. This means that reducing the distance between the objects will increase the magnitude of gravitational force.
If two objects become closer together is the gravitational attraction between them decreased?
No, it is increased. If the separation is halved, the attraction is quadrupled.
What happens if the force of gravity changed if the distance between the objects decreased?
Dylan is a nerd
What happens to the gravitational attraction between two objects if one or both objects acquires more mass?
As mass increases, so does the gravitational pull from the object.
Can gravitational potential energy be transferred between objects?
Yes. For example, this happens in a seesaw.
What happens to the strength of gravity when the distance is doubled?
When the distance between the centers of two objects is doubled, the gravitational forces between the objects are reduced by 75% .
What happens to the gravitation force between two objects if the distance between them is dicreased?
In this case, the gravitational force increases.
How does the gravitational force between 2 objects that have small masses compare to the gravitational force between large objects?
If the objects are the same distance apart (center to center), then the gravitational force between two less massive objects will be less than the gravitational force between two more massive objects.
What happens to the gravitational force between objects getting farther away A. it increases B. it decreases?
Decreases.
What happens to the gravitational force between objects of the mass either or both objects increased?
Gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses. So as mass is increased then force too increases
