Answer» According to UNIVERSAL law of gravitation, the force of attraction between 2 BODIES is:- F = (G m1m2)/r2 Where m1m2 = the masses of the two bodies, r = distance between them G = gravitational Constant When the distance is reduced to half i.e. r’ = (1/2) r then, F’ = (G m1m2)/r2 = (G m1m2)/(r/2)2 = (4 G m1m2)/ (r2) = 4F Therefore when the distance between the objects is reduced to half, then the force of gravitation increases by four TIMES the original force Explanation: please follow me please |
