Answer :
The two variables that affect the two gravitational force between two objects are distance and mass
Answer: The correct option is (c) distance, mass.
Explanation :
According to the universal law of gravitation, the forces acting between two objects in the universe is given by :
[tex]F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{d^2}[/tex]........(1)
Where,
F is the gravitational force between two objects.
G is universal gravitational constant.
[tex]m_1[/tex] and [tex]m_2[/tex] are masses of two objects.
d is the distance between two objects.
From equation (1) it is clear that the gravitational force between objects depends only on the masses and the distance between objects.
So, the variables distance and mass affect the gravitational force between objects.
