The gravitational force of attraction between two masses is 16N. What would e the force of attraction between them if each mass and the distance between thm are doubled  Show steps

Dear Student

Gravitational force of attraction can be given as
F =Gm1m2r216 =Gm1m2r2    ... (1)Now if mass and distance between them are doubledF =G2m1×2m22r2F =G4m1m24r2=Gm1m2r2   ...(2)From 1 and 2 it is clear thatF = 16 N
