Gravity

When the distance (r) between objects remains constant, and one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravitational attraction will be

• the same

• twice as much

• one-half as much

• one-fourth as much

When the mass of each object remains constant, and the distance is doubled, the force of gravitational attraction will be

• the same

• twice as much

• one-half as much

• one-fourth as much

Two blocks with different masses are placed 1 meter apart on a horizontal surface. Which of the following will occur if the blocks are moved farther apart.

• The gravitational force between the blocks will decrease.

• The gravitational force between the blocks will increase.

• The gravitational force between the blocks will remain the same.

• The gravitational force of the less massive block will increase.

Any object with mass has gravity.

• True
• Sometimes
• False
• Never

As distance between two objects increases the amount of gravitational attraction

• Increases

• Decreases

• Stays the same

As distance decreases, what happens to gravitational force?

• increases

• decreases

• stays the same

• i don't know
