Detailed Solution

The force of gravitation between two bodies does not depend on the sum of their masses.
“Universal gravitational law states that attractive force between two bodies of mass

m_{1}

and

m_{2}

which are kept at a distance

d

from each other is directly proportional to the product of masses and it is inversely proportional to the square of the distance in which they are kept.”
i.e.,

F α m_{1} m_{2}

and

F α \frac{1}{d^{2}}

or, combining these, we may write,

F = G \frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{d^{2}}

where,

G

is the gravitational constant.
So, from this, we get that the force of gravitation does not depend on the sum of the masses of the bodies.
