Which of the pictures shows the least gravitational force and why?

(1 point)

Picture I because the objects have large mass and more distance between them

Picture II because they have larger mass and less distance between them

Picture III because the objects have less distance between them

Picture IV because the objects have smaller mass and larger distance between them

Picture IV shows the least gravitational force because the objects have smaller mass and a larger distance between them. Gravitational force is stronger when objects have larger masses and are closer together. In this case, while the distance between the objects is smaller in Picture III, the larger masses in Picture IV result in a weaker gravitational force.
