The correct option.
Answer to Problem 5STP
The correct option is A.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Gravitational attraction between the object depends on the mass of the object.
Gravitational attraction between the objects is given by the following formula.
Here,
Gravitational attraction is directly proportional to the product of their masses.
Gravitational attraction is increases by increasing in mass of the object.
So, the gravitational force between object A and object B increases by increase the mass of the object A.
Conclusion:
Hence, the correct option is A.
