There are objects in space that have the same mass. one object is just outside of earth's atmosphere, and the other object is halfway between the earth and the moon. compare the gravitational forces acting on both objects. if the earth's moon were twice as far away from earth as it is now, how would the gravitational force between the earth and moon change? a) it would be the same. b) it would decrease by one half c) it would decrease two times d) it would decrease four times

Answertraveling around a circular trackexplanation"traveling around a circular track" is the best answer as you could be traveling around a circular track at a constant speed. your velocity would therefore have the same magnitude but will always be constantly direction. since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, the rate of change will only involve the direction of velocity and not the magnitude.wrong choices: "an object at rest" does not accelerate at all"increasing speed while traveling around a curve" means that the acceleration will not be constant due to only change in direction; it will be constant due to both magnitude and direction"an object in free fall" does not necessarily change direction
