What applies to the force of gravity?

Answer 1

It acts over very large distances

Answer 2

(Explanation): gravity does NOT depend on charge differences; gravity depends on mass differences. Gravity is the weakest out of the four fundamental forces, so it is actually NOT a very strong attractive force or a dominant force within an atom. Therefore, gravity acts over large distances, which is true; it can be observed even in the vast distance in outer space.

Answer 3

Gravitational force/acceleration applies to an object, not it's mass nor its weight. The object's mass affects the gravitational force though. "Gravitational Force" is related to mass in the equation: F=Gm1m2/(r^2), where m1 is the mass of one object and m2 is the mass of the other. On Earth, the "Gm1/(r^2)" part is often simplified to "g," thus the equation becomes F=mg. F=mg is defined to be weight. g is also called the acceleration due to gravity and has a value of -9.8 m/s^2.

Answer 4

The force of gravity is an attractive force that exists between any two objects with mass. It is proportional to the masses of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Gravity is responsible for many phenomena, such as the motion of planets, the formation of galaxies, and the weight of objects on Earth.
