It is a force that tries to pull them together. It is called "gravitational force",

but most people just call it "gravity".

What is the attractive force between two masses?

Gravity is the attractive force between two masses. The greater the mass, the stronger the attraction.


What is the force of attraction between two 100 kg masses that are 2.0 m apart?

The gravitational force between the two 100kg masses is 16,681.511N


Gravitational force is small between what kind of masses?

Between two small masses and/or at long distance.


What makes a gravitational force?

The existence of two masses. Wherever they are in the universe, there is a force in both directions between them trying to pull them together. The strength of the force depends on the masses of both masses and on the distance between them.


What two objects increase when gravitational force decrease?

Gravity is the force of attraction between all masses in the universe.The magnitude of a gravitational force depends onthe masses of the objectsthe distance between the objectsThe gravitational force between two bodies increases as their masses increase.


To increase the force of gravity between two objects how should you change the masses?

Increase the masses.


According to the law of universal gravitation the gravitational force between two objects is related to their masses and what else?

the distance between them ATTRACTION!!! :) -iRALANDA♥


Why there is no force of attraction between closer objects?

If you mean gravitational attraction, there is such a force between ANY two objects. The force depends on the distance (if two objects are closer, the attraction is stronger), and on the masses involved (if the masses are larger, the force is larger). The masses of "everyday" objects, for example two people, are so small (for the purposes of the gravitational force) that the force is hard to measure.


What is the relationship between mass and gravitity?

The size of the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses.


Is the force of gravity greater between two objects that have greater masses?

Gravity is greater between objects with large masses than between objects with small masses.


The force of gravity between two objects will be greatest if their masses are?

At any given distance between two objects, the force of gravity increases as the product of their individual masses increases. In principle, there is no "greatest". As long as you can keep increasing the product of their masses, the gravitational force of attraction between them will keep increasing.


How is Coulombs Law like Newtons Law?

The force between two charges (masses) is proportional to the product of the charges (masses) and inversely proportional (same) to the distance between them. The formula for the force between two charges (masses) has the same exact form in both cases.
