Answer:

This force of gravitational attraction is directly dependent upon the masses of both objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates their centers. This means that as you move away from an object the gravitational force decreases.

Answer:

As you move away from the Earth, the pull of Earth's gravity weakens. ... The bigger the object, the stronger the force of gravity it exerts.
