According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, if the distance between two objects is doubled while their masses remain the same, the gravitational force between them becomes:
Adoubled
Bhalved
Cone-fourth of the original
Dfour times the original
Explanation
📌 F = GmM/d². Force is inversely proportional to d². Double d → d² becomes 4d² → F becomes F/4. Distractor A treats it as direct proportion; B applies 1/d instead of 1/d² (forgot the square); D squares wrong direction (direct instead of inverse).
