What is the Universal law of gravitation equation? (remember, d and R are the same thing)
F = m1⋅m2/d2
G = m1⋅m2/(d)2
F= d2/m1⋅m2
G= d2/m1⋅m2
Which configuration will result in the greatest gravitational force?
small masses far apart
large masses far apart
small masses close together
large masses close together
Two asteroids exert a gravitational force, F, on each other. Some time later, the asteroids are now three times as far from each other as before. Which of the following represents the gravitational force at this distance?
F=m1m2/d2
F=1/3
F=1/2
F=1/6
F=1/9
A moon is located at 1 unit out from the planet it orbits. If that moon was orbiting at 2 units out from the planet, how much would the gravitational force on the moon be compared to its distance at 1 unit? F=m1m2/d2
1/4 as much
1/6 as much
2x as much
4 times as much
What happens to Gravitational force if I double both of the masses but don't change their distance? F=m1m2/d2
doubles
half as big
4x bigger
4x smaller
If the mass of either m1 or m2 is increased then the force of gravitation between them will...
increase
decrease
stay the same
Which diagram best shows the gravitational interaction between Earth and a satellite?

3 F
1 F
9 F
1/9 F
1/27 F
