What is the relationship between mass and gravitational pull?
A
Higer mass creates higher gravitational pull
B
Lower mass creates higher gravitational pull
C
Lower gravitational pull creates more mass
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The greater the size of the masses, the greater the size of the gravitational force (also called the gravity force).

Detailed explanation-2: -Gravitational force-an attractive force that exists between all objects with mass; an object with mass attracts another object with mass; the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mass always stays the same, but weight can change depending on how much gravity is acting upon an object. Cool fact: Any two masses have a gravitational attraction for one another, and the greater the mass, the greater the pull.

Detailed explanation-4: -Objects with more mass have more gravity. 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.

Detailed explanation-5: -According to Sir Isaac Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation, the gravitational attraction between two bodies is stronger when the masses of the objects are greater and closer together. This rule applies to the Earth’s gravitational field as well.

Detailed explanation-6: -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.
