Answer:

Option A, attract each other

Step-by-step explanation:

According to universal law of gravity, two objects which possess mass attracts each other. This force of gravity is given by the following relation


F = (G * m_(1) * G_(2) )/(r^(2) )\\

Where

F represents the force of gravity between two objects having mass


m_(1) , m_(2)\\ represents the masses of the two objects

G represents the gravitational constant which is equal to

and r represents the distance between the two objects.


6.67 * 10^(-11) m^(3)  kg^(-1) s^(-2)\\

Hence, the correct answer is option A
