Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The force of gravity is determined by the ____ of both objects and the ____ between them.
A
weight, density
B
density, distance
C
volume, distance
D
mass, distance
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: Gravitational force between two objects varies directly as their masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your weight is actually just the force of gravity between your body’s mass and the Earth’s mass. We feel the Earth pulling on us with a force that we call gravity. The ‘force of gravity’ is often expressed in terms of the acceleration the gravitational force will give an object when the object is dropped.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -According to Newton’s law of gravitation, any two bodies, in this universe, attract each other with the force of gravity. So, the gravitational force between two masses is always attractive.
