Can I have some help with this 

 

**Astronomy Ranking Task: Gravity**

**Exercise #2**

**Description:** The figures below (A – E) each show two rocky asteroids with masses (m), expressed in arbitrary units, separated by a distance (d), also expressed in arbitrary units.

**Diagrams:**

- **Figure A:** Two asteroids with masses \( m = 5 \) and \( m = 3 \), separated by a distance \( d = 5 \).

- **Figure B:** Two asteroids with masses \( m = 10 \) and \( m = 2 \), separated by a distance \( d = 3 \).

- **Figure C:** Two asteroids with masses \( m = 1 \) and \( m = 1 \), separated by a distance \( d = 3 \).

- **Figure D:** Two asteroids with masses \( m = 3 \) and \( m = 3 \), separated by a distance \( d = 5 \).

- **Figure E:** Two asteroids with masses \( m = 1 \) and \( m = 20 \), separated by a distance \( d = 5 \).

This task is designed to help you understand gravitational interactions between objects of varying masses and distances.

### Gravity Ranking Exercise

#### A. Ranking Instructions

**Task:** Rank (from greatest to least) the strength of the gravitational force exerted on the asteroid located on the left side of each pair.

- **Ranking Order:** Greatest 1 __ 2 __ 3 __ 4 __ 5 __ Least

  Or, if the strength of the gravitational force exerted in each case is the same, indicate with a check mark: _______

**Carefully explain your reasoning for ranking this way:**
