Two spheres separated by center-to-center distance r.
Two identical uniform spheres are separated by a distance \(r\) measured from the center of one sphere to the center of the other. The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by one sphere on the other is \(F\). If the spheres are moved so that the center-to-center distance is increased to \(3r\), what is the new magnitude of the gravitational force between the spheres?
