Question

analyze the graph below. the graph shows the relationship between a planets mass and the gravitational force it exerts on a nearby planet. gravitational force exerted on neighboring planet use the graph to help you answer the question. which statement best describes the relationship between the planets mass and the gravitational force it produces? a as the mass of the planet increases, the gravitational force remains constant. b as the mass of the planet increases, the gravitational force decreases. c as the mass of the planet increases, the gravitational force increases.

Explanation:

By observing the graph, as the x - value (mass of the planet) increases, the y - value (gravitational force) also increases.

Answer:

C. As the mass of the planet increases, the gravitational force increases.
