Question

2 switch the \force values\ to scientific notation. then, drag the objects closer together and pay attention to the force of gravity on each object. use what you observe to fill in the blank and complete this sentence. not all answer choices will be used.

as the distance between the objects decreases, the magnitude (strength) of the gravitational forces

increases decreases stays the same

Explanation:

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that the gravitational force between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. When objects are moved closer (distance decreases), the gravitational force's magnitude becomes stronger.

Answer:

increases
