Question

in the equation for the gravitational force between two objects, which quantity must be squared?
$m_1$
$m_2$
$g$
$d$

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The gravitational - force formula is $F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}$, where $F$ is the gravitational force, $G$ is the gravitational constant, $m_1$ and $m_2$ are the masses of the two objects, and $d$ is the distance between the centers of the two objects. In this formula, the distance $d$ is squared.

Answer:

D. $d$
