The force of gravity varies with theGroup of answer choicesproduct of the two masses.inverse of the distance separating the two bodies.inverse square of the distance separating the two bodies.Both A and B are correct.Both A and C are correct.
Solution
Both A and C are correct. The force of gravity varies with the product of the two masses and the inverse square of the distance separating the two bodies. This is known as Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.
