Step-by-step explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects when they are placed at some distance is given by :


F=G(m_1m_2)/(d^2)

Where

G is universal gravitational constant

m₁ and m₂ are masses

d is the distance between masses

The gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely to the square of the distance between them. It would mean that if the mass of the objects increases, the force will increase while if the distance is increased, the force between objects will decrease.
