Mass and Force

Detailed explanation-1: -The force of gravity depends directly upon the masses of the two objects, and inversely on the square of the distance between them. This means that the force of gravity increases with mass, but decreases with increasing distance between objects.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -When determining the force of gravity between two masses, the effect of distance follows the inverse-square law. The inverse-square law states that the strength of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
