question 11
what are the two factors that determine the force of gravity?
(choose two.)
□ friction
□ mass
□ magnetism
□ distance
□ velocity
To determine the two factors that affect the force of gravity, we refer to Newton's law of universal gravitation, which states that the gravitational force \( F \) between two objects is given by \( F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2} \), where \( G \) is the gravitational constant, \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) are the masses of the two objects, and \( r \) is the distance between their centers. From this formula, we can see that the force of gravity depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them. Friction, magnetism, and velocity are not factors that determine the gravitational force.
