Question 1007675: Two jack o lanterns are sitting 6m apart from their centers. One jack o lantern is 10kg and the other is 8kg.
1. What is the force of gravity between them?
2. What will happen to the force of gravity between them if you move the jack o lanterns closer together? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
This is a Physics problem. It is a Physics problem because you expect someone to provide the formula for the gravitational attraction between to masses. If you had provided the formula, then it would be an arithmetic problem. I will help you to the extent of telling you that once you have the appropriate formula, you can substitute the values you are given and do the indicated arithmetic to find the answer.
The answer to part b is that the force will increase.
