• A. distance, masses
• B. masses, distance
• C. weights, displacement
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is B

masses, distance

According to the universal law of gravitation, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and it is inversely proportional to the square of their distances. Thus, gravitational force can be changed by changing the masses and changing the distance between them.
