If the masses of the objects in Problem 35 are both increased by a factor of 5,
Question:
If the masses of the objects in Problem 35 are both increased by a factor of √5, by what factor does the gravitational force change? Do not use a calculator to solve this problem!
Data From Problem 35
Two small objects of mass 20 kg and 30 kg are a distance 1.5 m apart. What is the gravitational force of one of these objects on the other?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
