The less mass or the farther away objects are in space, the ____ the gravitational attraction is between objects.
A
higher
B
upper
C
stronger
D
weaker
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Gravitational force is an attraction between masses. The greater the size of the masses, the greater the size of the gravitational force (also called the gravity force). The gravitational force weakens rapidly with increasing distance between masses.

Detailed explanation-2: -As you get farther away from a gravitational body such as the sun or the earth (i.e. as your distance r increases), its gravitational effect on you weakens but never goes completely away; at least according to Newton’s law of gravity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Gravity also gets weaker with distance. So, the closer objects are to each other, the stronger their gravitational pull is. Earth’s gravity comes from all its mass. All its mass makes a combined gravitational pull on all the mass in your body.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: Force of gravity decreases when distance between objects is increased.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most gravitons exist in a cloud around the object. As distance from the object increases, the density of the graviton cloud goes down, so there is less gravitational attraction.
