Question

The gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the product of the masses of the objects.

Answer 1

directly / inversely 

Answer 2

Answer : The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the objects.

Explanation :

We know that the gravitational force is given by :

`F=G(m_1m_2)/(r^2)`........ (1)

where,

G is the universal gravitational constant.

`m_1,m_2` are the masses of two objects.

r is the distance between them.

So, from equation (1) it is clear that :

The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses.
