Question

State whether true or false.

Gravitational forces can also be repulsive like that of electrostatic forces.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Gravitational force, $F=\frac{G{M}_1{M}_2}{R^2}$

Now the mass of the objects can not be opposite (i.e., mass cannot be negative), thus, the nature of the force cannot be repulsive like that of electrostatic force.
