Question

Which of the following are true concerning Newton's Law Of Gravitation?

The graviational force is related to the mass of each object
The graviational force is an attractive force
A large and a small object are gravitationally attracted to each other. The magnitude of the gravitational force on the larger object is greater than on the smaller
The gravitationsal force on a satellite is greater at an altitude of 1000km above the earth than at an altitude of 500km
The gravitational force between the earth and a person is constant, no matter how high the person is above the surface of the earth

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I think these are the answers

1) True: The gravitational force between two objects depend on their masses and distance.

2) True: The gravitational force between objects is always attractive, meaning the force vectors will always point towards each other. (think Newton's 3rd law)

3)True: There will always be some sort of gravitional attraction between objects although it would be close to 0 for small objects.

4)False: the force applied on each object are equal (remember: Newton's 3rd law).

5)False: The further the satellite is from the surface of a planet, the weaker the gravitional force is between them. The force is a max at the surface of the planet.

6)False:(same as 5's explaination)
