Two masses attracted by a gravitational force of 0.45 N. What will the force of attraction be if the distance between the two masses is tripled?


Best answer:
Answer by kiwiJOEYRecall that gravity follows an inverse square law ... if d is the distance it's proportional to 1/d². So if the distance is tripled, the attraction force becomes one ninth of what it
