            can you identify a pair of balanced forces in the diagram Explain your answer
answer
        in set c pair the force equals are equal
question
            in Set A, what would you have to do to the objects to make the gravitational forces between the objects in pair 2 the same as the forces between the objects in pair 1
answer
        the gravtional force between the objects in pair two is greater than the gravtioal force between the objects in pair 1 because the objects in pair 2 are closer two each other
