Options

• Remain same

• Become half

• Become double

• Become four times

Answer 1

If the mass of one object is doubled and the distance remains the same, the gravitational force will become double.

Explanation:

Since F ∝ m₁ × m₂, if one mass doubles, the force also doubles (keeping distance constant).
