As distance between two objects increase the pull of gravity 

• Increases

• Decreases

• Stays the same

Jackson and Maya are comparing two objects, one with a greater mass than the other. They observe that the object with greater mass has

• less gravitational force

• stronger gravitational force

• no clue

• a way to break apart

The closer two objects are to each other

• the harder they will land

• have no gravitational force

• have a stronger gravitational force

• yep
