How does distance affect gravitational attraction?

Back

As distance increases, gravitational attraction decreases.

Front

What is the formula for gravitational force?

Back

F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2, where F is the gravitational force, G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses, and r is the distance between the centers of the two masses.
