Which statement about the development of Newton's theory of universal graviton is correct?
1.) Johnnie's Kepler and Issac Newton worked together to define gravity as a force on Earth.
2.) Isaac Newton describe the existence of gravitational force mathematically, but he built upon the ideas of other scientists before him.
3.) The ideas of scientists such as name Nicolaus Copernicus and Robert Hooke contradicted Newton's theory of universal gravitation.
4.)Isaac Newton was the first scientist to propose the idea that gravity increases distance between objects decrease

4) Isaac Newton was the first scientist to propose the idea that gravity increases distance between objects decrease

Explanation:

1 - Kepler may have inspired most of Newton's propositions, but there is no record of collaborating on the theory of universal gravitation.

2 - The universal gravitation theory resemble the works of other great scientists, but Newton was indeed the first to propose this idea of gravitation

3 - On the contrary, these scientists have shared concepts, with differences in accuracy that supersede each other to be accepted by the community (i.e: Einstein being at the forefront despite sharing some ideas with Newton)

i just did an experiment like this in my science class. also the answer is yes, it will get separated because they are two opposites meaning if they are opposite they can not attract.

hope this .!
