Question
factors that affect the force of gravity between objects include their distance apart and their ______.
Brief Explanations
According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the formula is \(F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}\), where \(F\) is the gravitational force, \(G\) is the gravitational constant, \(m_1\) and \(m_2\) are the masses of the two objects, and \(r\) is the distance between their centers of mass. So, besides the distance \(r\), the masses (\(m_1\) and \(m_2\)) of the objects also affect the gravitational force.
