Answer 2

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.
