A planet has two identical moons with identical mass. Moon 1 is in a circular orbit of radius r. Moon 2 is in a circular orbit of radius 2r. The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 2 is
  1.four times as large as the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 1.
  2.twice as large as the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 1.
  3.the same as the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 1.
  4.half as large as the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 1.
  5.one-fourth as large as the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 1.
