Question
the statement that every object attracts every other object is:
the law of universal gravitation
untrue
the law of affinity
The Law of Universal Gravitation states that every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. So the statement "every object attracts every other object" is a part of the Law of Universal Gravitation. The Law of Affinity is related to chemical reactions (how strongly atoms or molecules bind together) and not about objects attracting each other in general. And the statement is not untrue as per the Law of Universal Gravitation.
