16. Using the gravitational force of a satellite to deflect an asteroid from colliding with Earth is not feasible because- the gravitational force of the asteroid is greater than that of the satellite the magnitude of the gravitational force is small friction in space will resist gravitational force between objects the gravitational force only exists between large objects CLEAR ALL
