Observe the following diagram and answer the questions

How will the value of force F change if the distance r is doubled ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Gravitational force between the two bodies is given by
`F= (Gm_1m_2)/(r^2)`
When distance between the objects is dobled the force F' will be
`F' = (Gm_1m_2)/((2r)^2)`
`=(Gm_1m_2)/(4r^2) = 1/4F`
`therefore` Force becomes one fourth the initial force .
