SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -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: -Gravity is affected by the size of an object and the distance between the objects. When the mass of an object increases the force of gravity increases as well. If an object’s weight is greater than the other object’s weight, then the object with the greater weight will land first.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -Two factors determine the magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects: (1) their masses and (2) the separation distance between them. The size of the force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects.
