Imagine a solar system in which all of the planets orbit a star, and this star is more massive than any of the other planets. Additionally, all of the planets have the same mass, but Planet A is closer to the star than Planet B. Which of the following is also true?

Question options:

1. The gravitational pull between the star and Planet A is the same as the pull between the star and Planet B because Planet A and Planet B have the same mass.

2. The gravitational pull between the star and Planet A is the same as the pull between the star and Planet B because the star is so much larger.

3. The gravitational pull between the star and Planet B is greater than the pull between the star and Planet A because Planet A is closer to the star than Planet B.

4. The gravitational pull between the star and Planet A is greater than the pull between the star and Planet B because Planet A is closer to the star than Planet B.
