Assuming by "the force acting on an object" you mean the cause of its acceleration, its acceleration will be doubled. If there is more than one force acting on it, the vector of the force will have to be analyzed by its effect on each of the other forces.

∙ 15y agoWell, if you're going by the equation F=ma where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration, the acceleration stays the same since the ratio in the equation balances out to 1:1.

unchanged, then the mutual attractive force between them due to gravitation is also doubled.

How does the gravitational force between two objects change if the mass of one the objects is doubted?
If the mass of both of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is quadrupled; and so on. Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces.
If the masses do not change but the objects are moved farther apart r becomes bigger will be gravitational force become stronger or weaker?
If the masses do not change, but the objects are moved farther apart, the gravitational force becomes weaker, due to the distance between the objects.
What does doubling the distance between two objects do to the gravitational force between the objects?
Because of the inverse-square law, doubling the distance will change the gravitational force by a factor of 1/4 (calculated as 1 divided by 2 squared).
What reduces gravitational force between objects?
Answer The Universal Law of Gravitation states the gravitational force between any two objects of mass can be calculated with the equation F=G*(m_1*m_2)/r^2. As a result, increasing the mass of one or both objects increases the gravitational force. Increasing the distance between the two objects decreases the gravitational force. Notice the distance between them is squared so if you keep the masses the same and double the distance between them the gravitational force will decrease by four times.
What happens to an objects mass when gravitational force is increased?
Nothing. The mass will not change with a gravitational increase, but the weight will.

When does gravitational force change between objects?
distance
The force of gravitation between two objects is 500 Newtons. the mass of one of the bodies doubled what would the new force of gravitational attraction be?
1,000 newtons, provided the distance between them didn't change.
How does gravitational force between two objects change as you increase mass?
It increases
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 productof the two masses. So if either mass decreases and the distance between theobjects doesn't change then the gravitational forces between them also decrease.
If the masses do not change but the objects are moved farther apart r becomes bigger will be gravitational force become stronger or weaker?
If the masses do not change, but the objects are moved farther apart, the gravitational force becomes weaker, due to the distance between the objects.
What will be the effect on the force between two objects if the charges on both are doubled?
If the magnitude of each of two charges is doubled, then the direction of the force between them doesn't change, but its magnitude increases by a factor of 4.
What does doubling the distance between two objects do to the gravitational force between the objects?
Because of the inverse-square law, doubling the distance will change the gravitational force by a factor of 1/4 (calculated as 1 divided by 2 squared).
How would the force of gravity between two objects change if the mass if each object were doubled?
The Gravity would Double.

How does the force of gravity between two bodies change when the distance between them tripled?
The gravitational pull of an object in relation to its distance from another object is an inverse square law. When the distance between two objects is doubled, their pulled on each other is quartered. G ∝ 1/r2 where G is the gravitational pull and r is the separation.
What happens to an objects mass when gravitational force is increased?
Nothing. The mass will not change with a gravitational increase, but the weight will.
