Answer:

It depends on the mass of each of the bodies, and the distance that separates them.

Step-by-step explanation:

The force of attraction between two objects depends on the mass of each of the bodies as well as the distance that separates them. This force can be easily calculated by means of the universal gravitation law formulated by Newton.

Next, we will see the equation that explains the law of universal gravitation.


F=G*(m_(1)*m_(2) )/(r^(2) ) \\where:\\G = 6.67 *10^(-11) [N*m^(2)/kg^(2)  ]\\\m_(1) = mass of the small body [kg]\\m_(2) = mass of the large body [kg]\\\r= distance between the bodies[m]
