Two sphere of masses `m` and `M` are situated in air and the gravitational force between them is `F`. The space around the masses in now filled with a liquid of specific gravity `3`. The gravitational force will now be

A

`3F`

B

`F`

C

`g`

D

`g`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
