10. Which of the following is FALSE about the gravitational force exerted on a body A at distance "z" from a uniform, spherically symmetric object B of mass "M" and radius "R"'? a. Atr> R, the gravitational force felt by A is independent of the radius R of object B. b. Atr> R, the gravitational force felt by A is independent of the mass M of object B. c. Atr>R, the gravitational force felt by A is inversely dependent on its distance squared, P, from object B. d. Atr>R, the gravitational force felt by the side of A facing B is larger than the force felt by the side of A farthest from B. B could exert tidal forces on A and vice-versa. e.
