Respuesta :

Answer:

magnitude of gravitational force between the Earth and the Sun at B is greater than that at A

Explanation:

Formula of gravitational force:

F = GMm/r^2

(r is the distance between 2 objects)

We see that r(B) < r(A) since at B, the Earth is closer to the Sun than at A

According to the Formula, the smaller r is, the greater F is

So, F(B) > F(A)
