KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases.

Detailed explanation-2: -The size of the gravitational force is proportional to the masses of the objects and weakens as the distance between them increases. Both objects exert an equal attractive force on each other: a falling object is attracting the Earth with the same size force as the Earth is attracting it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Here we find if the distance between the two objects is increased by a factor of 5, then the gravitational force of attraction decreases by 25 times.

Detailed explanation-4: -The strength of gravity between two objects depends on two factors: the masses of the objects and the distance between them. The force of gravity between two objects is greater if the objects are closer together.
