The following objects will exert the greatest gravitational force on a box⇒ 8 kg mass
Further explanation
Gravity is a force that arises because of the attraction between objects with mass.
The magnitude of this attraction is proportional to the mass of the object.
The greater the mass of the object, the greater the gravitational force
Relationships can both be stated in
Newton's Gravity Law:
[tex]\rm F=G.\dfrac{m_1.m_2}{r^2}[/tex]
with F = gravitational force,
G = gravitational constant,
m1, m2 = mass of object,
r = distance between two objects.
The distance-r and mass of the box(m₁) are the same, then the largest object's mass (m₂)exerts a large gravitational force, because the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the two objects
