gravitational force

Mass is a measurement of 

• how much matter is present in an object
• how much weight is present in an object
• the amount a spring is compressed on a scale
• none of the answers are correct

As the mass of an object increases, the gravitational force acting on it ......................

• Increases

• Decreases

• Stays the same
