उत्तर
The gravitational force between two cricket balls is extremely small but that between a cricket ball and the earth is large because force depends on mass of an object. Greater the mass, greater is the force of gravitation. This force of gravity is very week between the two cricket balls because of their mass, so it cannot be felt. But with the earth, it can be felt as the earth’s mass is very large.
