Question

Describe the relationship between gravitational force and distance as shown in the diagram below. SC.6.P.13.2 ​

Answer 1

Let's see the formula

`\\ \sf\longmapsto F=G(Mm)/(r^2)`

• r is the distance
• G is gravitational constant
• M is mass of earth
• m is mass of object.

Hence

`\\ \sf\longmapsto F\propto (1)/(r)`

• If distance is more force is less .
• If distance is less force is more.
