प्रश्न
Describe how the gravitational force between two objects depends on the distance between them.
उत्तर
Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the masses. More the distance, less the gravitational force; less the distance, more is the gravitational force. This is how gravitational force between two objects is dependent on the distance.
