If the masses of two bodies are quadrupled and the distance between their centers is doubled, then how many times the force of gravitation between them will be changed ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will use Newton's law of universal gravitation, which states that the gravitational force \( F \) between two masses \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) separated by a distance \( r \) is given by the formula: \[ F = \frac{G \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{r^2} \] where \( G \) is the gravitational constant. ...
