Question
- what happens to gravity as objects get closer to a bla
a. it decreases
b. it stays the same
c. it increases
d. it disappears
- what does the term \gravitational field\ refer to? *
a the area where light can escape
b. the area around an object where it can exert gravitational f
c. the field where anti - gravity occurs
d the space between planets
For question 3, according to the law of universal gravitation \(F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}\) (where \(F\) is the gravitational force, \(G\) is the gravitational constant, \(m_1\) and \(m_2\) are the masses of two objects, and \(r\) is the distance between them), when the distance \(r\) decreases (objects get closer), the gravitational force \(F\) increases.
For question 4, by definition, a gravitational field is the area around an object where it can exert gravitational force.
