Would the gravitational force between the moon and earth increase if the mass of earth increased?

yes, because according to newton's law of universal gravitation, the gravitational
attraction between two objects depends on the masses of both of them (and also
on the distance between them)

How would the moon move if earths mass increased?
If Earth's mass increased, then the gravitational force between Earth and the moon would also increase. The moon would be more strongly attracted to Earth. The acceleration between the 2 would increase also.
What happens to the gravitational force between two objects if the mass of one object is uadrupled increased 4 times. the gravitational force would be?
It would also increase fourfold ... as long as the distance between them didn't change.
If the mass of the star were doubled what effect would this have on the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet?
Gravity would be increased by one.
What would happen if the sun's gravitational pull was increased?
we would probably die
Over millions of years the moon is moving further away from the earth what will happen to the gravitational attraction between the moon and the earth as the moon gets further away?
As the moon gets further and further away, the gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon decreases. Because the Moon is not being attracted but being pushed away from the Earth. If the gravitational force would have increased, the moon would come closer and closer to the Earth.

What would be the effect on the gravitational force if you increase mass and increase the distance between the masses?
If you increase the mass, you increase the gravitational force proportionally. If you increase the distance between two masses, you decrease the gravitational force between them by and amount proportional to the square of the distance.
What would cause the gravitational attraction between a star and a planet increased?
Huh?
What effect would increasing the mass of two object have on gravitational attraction between them?
the gravitational attraction would increase, because the more mass something has the more gravitational pull it has.
If the mass of the star were doubled what effect would this have on the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet?
Gravity would be increased by one.
How does gravitational potential energy of an object increase?
On Earth, Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) would increase with an increasing altitude.
What would happen if the sun's gravitational pull was increased?
we would probably die
Explain how the gravitational force between Earth and Moon would change if the distance between increased?
The force of gravity is F=Gm1m2 / r^2 so if we increase r, the distance away then the force between the earth and moon decreases. Because in the equation you can see when we increase r we are dividing by a larger number r squared, making F become smaller.
Would an increase in contractility cause an increase to cardiac output?
Yes - an increase in contractility would lead to an increase in stroke volume. An increased stroke volume would cause an increased cardiac output.
Jupiter has about 300 times the mass of Earth and about ten times Earth's radius. What's the Estimated size of g on the surface of Jupiter?
Since gravitational forces between two masses are proportional to m1 & m2, a 300x increase in planetary mass would INCREASE the gravitational force on an object by the same factor: 300x compared to earth. Since gravitational forces are also proportional to 1/(radius squared), a 10x increase in planetary radius would DECREASE the gravitational force by a factor of 100x (10 squared), at the planet's surface. So an object on such a planet would experience gravitational forces 3x greater than those on earth.

What affect would decreasing the distance between objects have on their gravitational attraction to each other?
Decreasing the distance between two objects will increase the force of gravity. Gravity is proportional to the mass of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
