Which planet exerts the greatest gravitational force on Planet X?

Planet C

Explanation:

The figure of the problem is missing: find it in attachment.

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

In this problem, we have four planets around planet X, and the mass of each planet is proportional to its size in the figure.

As we can see from the previous equation, the magnitude of the gravitational force is proportional to the mass of the planets: therefore, the planet with largest mass will exert the largest gravitational force on planet X.

From the figure, we see that planet C has the largest size, so the largest mass: therefore, planet C exerts the greatest gravitational force on planet X.

the answer is a. the yacht traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

im doing peak rn so sry if its wrong

truck y has a greater velocity than truck x.
