∙ 13y agoThe magnitude of the gravitational force between the sun and Earth would decrease if Earth was placed in Pluto's orbit. This is because the force of gravity between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them, so as Earth moved farther away from the sun (as in Pluto's orbit), the gravitational force would weaken.
The gravitational pull between earth and the spacecraft will become insignificant.
The gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon will continue to exist and affect their orbits. Over time, tidal forces will cause the Moon to move further away from the Earth, which will result in a weaker gravitational force between them.
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.
If the gravitational force between Earth and the Sun was eliminated, Earth would move in a straight line tangent to its orbit, traveling at a constant velocity. The absence of gravitational force would cause Earth to leave its orbit around the Sun and continue on a trajectory into space.

The magnitude of the force would decrease greatly.
The magnitude of the force would decrease greatly.
Tidal waves
The gravitational pull between earth and the spacecraft will become insignificant.
If the radius is doubled, the gravitational force between two objects will decrease by a factor of 4. This is because the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.
Nothing, the force in question IS gravitational attraction.
The gravitational force between the Earth and the Moon will continue to exist and affect their orbits. Over time, tidal forces will cause the Moon to move further away from the Earth, which will result in a weaker gravitational force between them.
The force will increase fourfold.
If the distance between two masses is doubled, the gravitational force of attraction between them will decrease by a factor of 4. This is because the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the masses, according to Newton's law of universal gravitation.
Double
The magnitude of the sum of any two vectors can be anywhere between zero and the sum of their two magnitudes, depending on their magnitudes and the angle between them. When you say "components", you're simply describing a sum of two vectors that happen to be perpendicular to each other. In that case, the magnitude of their sum is Square root of [ (magnitude of one component)2 + (magnitude of the other component)2 ] It looks to me like that can't be less than the the magnitude of the greater component.
No, the resultant of two equal vectors will have a magnitude that is not equal to the magnitude of the original vectors. When two vectors are added together, the resulting vector will have a magnitude that depends on the angle between the two vectors.
