Which statement describes the relationship between diagram X and Y?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for an explanation of the relationship between two diagrams (X and Y), which illustrate gravitational pull between objects. We are to assess how the diagrams differ based on the size of the circles and the thickness of the arrows which represent gravitational force.
Answer
If the masses of the objects increase, then the force between them also increases.
If the masses of the objects increase, then the force between them also increases.
Answer for screen readers
If the masses of the objects increase, then the force between them also increases.
More Information
In physics, this statement describes the relationship in terms of gravitational force, which is directly proportional to the masses involved.
Tips
Confusing mass with distance in force calculations. Remember, gravitational force increases with mass and decreases with distance.
