A solar system has the five planets shown below. The mass of each planet is proportional to its size. Planet X is at equal distance from Planet A, Planet B, Planet C, and Planet D. Five circles labeled Planet A, Planet B, Planet C, Planet D, and Planet X are shown. Planets X is at the center with all other planets around it. Planet X is at the same distance from Planet A, Planet B, Planet C, and Planet D. Planet D is the smallest and Planet C is the biggest. Planet X and Planet B have the same size and they are bigger than Planet D but smaller than Planet A and Planet C. Planet A is slightly bigger than Planet X but smaller than Planet C Which planet exerts the greatest gravitational force on Planet X? Group of answer choices Planet A Planet B Planet C Planet D

Colton · Answer 1

The answer is "planet C"

Explanation:

The answer would have to be C because of the mass of the planet, some people would say that is not exactly true in a lot of cases but in your problem the planet with the most gravitational exert would have to be planet C. One last thing you should know ... 'the Universal "LAW" of gravitation'. Laws/Principles can only be verified and cannot be proved. Laws are conclusions based on experiments.
