We don't know why. But we are convinced, by hundreds of years
of experiment, reason, and successful application, that it does.

What does gravity depend on between objects?
The mass of the objects and the distance between them.
What does the gravity between two objects depend?
-- the product of their two masses -- the distance between their centers
What does the strength of gravity depend on between two objects?
The product of the masses of the two objects, and the distance between them.
What two things does the strength of gravity between two objects depend on?
The masses (both of them), and the distance.
What The strength of gravity between two objects depend on what two things?
The masses (both of them), and the distance.
Does gravity between two objects depend on mass or distance?
The gravitational attraction between two objects depends on both their masses and the distance between them. It is proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects divided by the distance between them (mass1 x mass2)/ distance between.
What two factors do gravity depend on?
The forces that arise on account of gravity depend on the masses of the objects being attracted toward each other, and on the distance between their centers.
What two things between objects do the force of gravity depend on?
The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects depends on-- The product of their two masses-- The distance between their centers of mass
What happens to the force of gravity on a satellite as it gets closer to the sun?
The forces of gravity between any two objects depend on the mass of theobjects ... stronger for greater mass ... and on the distance between them ...stronger for smaller distance.
The force due to gravity between two objects depend on?
The product of their masses and the distance between them. (It doesn't depend on the size of either individual mass, only on the product of the two.)
What does the strength of gravity depend on?
The strength of gravity depends on the value of the universal gravitational constant.The size of the gravitational forces between two objects depends on the productof their masses, and on the distance between their centers.
What two things do the amount of gravitational pull between two objects depend on?
The mass of the objects and the distance between the objects.
