The three things to remember about gravitational forces in space are: 1. 2. 3.

The three things to remember about gravitational forces in space are:

(1) The gravitational forces are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects. More is the distance between the objects , less will be the gravitational force between them.

(2) The gravitational forces are the weakest of all the four fundamental forces (Nuclear forces, weak forces, electromagnetic forces, gravitational forces) in nature.

(3)Gravitational forces are always attractive . They are also conservative in nature. work done by these forces or against these forces doesn't depend on the path followed.
