What happens to the gravitational force when masses of both the bodies as well as distance between them is doubled?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine what happens to the gravitational force when the masses of both bodies and the distance between them is doubled, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Universal Law of Gravitation**: The gravitational force \( F \) between two masses \( M_1 \) and \( M_2 \) separated by a distance \( R \) is given by the formula: \[ F = \frac{G M_1 M_2}{R^2} ...
