According to Newton's Universal law of gravitation, the gravitational force between two bodies is

A

always attractive and depends on their masses.

B

depends on the distance between them.

C

does not depend on the medium between the bodies.

D

All of above.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Gravitational force of attraction between two bodies is directly proportional to the prouduct of their masses, inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them and it is independent of the medium.
