Answer: IV

Step-by-step explanation:


F=G(m1\cdot m2)/(r^2)

F= gravitational force

G= constant

m = mass

r= distance between objects

By looking at the formula we can see that the masses of the objects are proportional to the strength of the force. (less mass less force)

And the distance is inversely proportional to the force ( more distance less force)

Option IV has the objects with less mass and the greatest distance between them.
