Question 3 (10 points) The force of gravity depends on what two factors?

Question 3 options:

mass and distance

mass and acceleration

distance and time

velocity and displacement

mass and distance

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on a body depends on the mass of the body and the distance between the bodies.

This is based on Newton's law of Universal gravitation which states that "the force of gravity between two bodies is directly proportional to the  product of their masses and inversely proportional to the distance between them".

We see that the more the masses between two bodies, and the lower their separation the more the gravitational force between them.
