What two things affect the gravitational force acting on an object?

Answer (3)

The strength of the gravitational forces between two masses depends on
-- the product of the masses,
-- the distance between their centers of mass.

mass and distance (between two objects) are those TWO things that affect the gravitational force acting on an object

Answered by Anonymous | 2024-06-10

The gravitational force acting on an object is affected by two factors: the mass of the objects involved and the distance between them. Greater mass results in greater force, while increasing distance results in a weaker gravitational attraction. This relationship is described by Newton's law of universal gravitation.
