As the mass of two objects increases how does the gravitational force between the two bodies change?
Emg31795
Gravity is the force of attraction between all masses in the universe.
The magnitude of a gravitational force depends on
- the masses of the objects
- the distance between the objects

∙ 11y agoIf mass increases and distance stays the same, then the force of gravity between two objects increases.
If mass decreases and distance stays the same, then the force of gravity between two objects decreases.
If mass stays the same, and distance decreases, then the force of gravity between two objects increases.
If mass stays the same, and distance increases, then the force of gravity between two objects decreases.

∙ 13y agoThe gravitational force between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them so if two objects are moving towards each other, the distance between them is decreasing thus the gravitational force between them is increasing.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe force will increase by a factor equal to the increase in mass (doubling the mass doubles the force, increasing the mass by 10% increases the force by 10%)

∙ 12y agothe forces increase in proportion to their masses.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoDecrease in proportion to the square of the distance. So, double the distance results in quarter the gravitational force, treble the distance, force reduces to a ninth etc.

What holds bodies in their positions in the solar system?
A combination of the bodies' inertia, and the Sun's gravitational attraction.
What is the direction of the net force on the earth?
force of gravity between two objects is F=GMN/R(SQUARE) WHERE F IS THE FORCE , G IS THE UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION CONSTANT , M AND N ARE THE MASSES OF THE TWO BODIES AND R IS THE SHORTEST , PERPENDICULAR DISTANCE BETWEEN THE TWO BODIES
The distance between two objects increases the force of gravity becomes what?
As their mass does not change their gravitational force remains the same. For them to move closer together one of the objects must have a stronger gravitaional force than the other. If they collided and became fused together then the gravitaional force would be greater as there would now only be one object.
Is there any relationship between the mass of a planet and its gravitational field strength?
The relationship between the mass of a planet and its relative strength of gravitational pull is that they are directly proportional. The equation for the force of gravity between two bodies is F = GMm/r^2, where F is the force of gravity, G is the gravitational constant, M is mass 1, m is mass 2, and r is the distance between the objects.
The force of gravitation between two bodies does not depend upon?
There an endless number of factors that do not affect the gravitational attraction between two objects. There only two that do : * The force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects. * The force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the centers of mass of the two objects. * The force is given by f = G x m1 x m2 / d2 * G is the gravitational constant. * Don't confuse G with g which is the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface.
What two objects increase when gravitational force decrease?
Gravity is the force of attraction between all masses in the universe.The magnitude of a gravitational force depends onthe masses of the objectsthe distance between the objectsThe gravitational force between two bodies increases as their masses increase.
When gravity deceases what increases?
When the distance between the two bodies increases, the gravitational force attracting them decreases.
Describe how the gravitational force between two objects depends on their masses and the distance between them?
Gravitational force depends on the masses of both objects and the distance between them. The formula is Gravitational Force = 6.67428 * 10^-11 * Mass of First Object * Mass of Second Object / Distance^2.
When the mass of one of two objects increases what happens to the force of gravity between two objects?
The gravitational force would increase. This is because the gravitational force between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of the two masses. So if you double the mass of one of the masses, the force would double.
The gravitational force between two object increases as mass?
yes as G =(M)(m) thus as mass increases d force of gravitational also increases b/w d bodies. (r)(r)
Will more massive objects attract each other with a greater gravitational force or a smaller gravitational force?
The more massive the objects, the greater the gravitational force between them. The gravitational force is affected by mass and distance. The closer two bodies are, the greater the gravitational force also.
What happens to the force of gravity between two objects when the mass of one of the objects is increased?
Force of gravity, Fg, is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the two interacting objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Fg = Gm1m2/r2 Therefore, when either of the masses increase, Fg increases proportionally.
Does the gravitational force between two objects increase as the objects get farther apart?
F is proportional to M1 and M2 F is inversely proportional to square of R, the distance between the two bodies. F = (G x M1 x M2)/R^2 wher G is the gravitational constant.
Which would you expect to increase the gravitational force between two objects?
If you want me to pick the correct answer from a list of multiple choices for you, the least you could do would be to let me see the list. In this case, I can make a pretty good guess, because there are only two things that can have any influence on the gravitational force between two objects . . . the masses of the objects, and the distance between them.
How does the force of gravity between two bodies change when the distance between them is increased by 4?
Provided neither mass changes, the mutual gravitational force of attraction betweentwo bodies decreases to 1/16 of its original value when the distance between theircenters increases to 4 times the original distance.
What holds bodies in their positions in the solar system?
A combination of the bodies' inertia, and the Sun's gravitational attraction.
What happens to the force of gravity as mass increases and as the distance between the objects increase?
It decreases. Gravity in inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
