Question
which two factors have an effect on the gravitational force between two objects?
a. electromagnetic force
b. their masses
c. their charges
d. the distance between them
e. the strong nuclear force
The formula for gravitational force is \( F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2} \), 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. So the factors affecting gravitational force are the masses of the objects and the distance between them. Electromagnetic force, charges, and strong nuclear force are not related to gravitational force.
