Question

multiple - choice question why do the astronauts on the international space station experience less gravitational pull? they are farther away from the source of gravity. they are weightless. rewatch

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Gravitational force decreases with distance from the source of gravity (Earth in this case). Astronauts on the ISS are at a greater distance from Earth's center compared to being on Earth's surface, so they experience less gravitational pull. They are not truly weightless; they are in a state of free - fall.

Answer:

They are farther away from the source of gravity.
