Far from any other masses, two masses, m1 and m2, are interacting gravitationally. the value for the mass of m1 suddenly doubles. what happens to the value of the gravitational force that mass m2 exerts on mass m1?

It also doubles The gravitational force between two masses is expressed as: F = G*m1*m2/r^2 where F = Force between the two masses m1 = Mass of object 1 m2 = Mass of object 2 r = distance between centers of object 1 and object 2 G = Gravitational constant The exact values of G, m1, m2, and r don't matter since all except for m1 is held constant. And when m1 suddenly doubles, the force attracting the two object to each other also doubles.
