Which effect increases in the Cavendish experiment when gravitational mass decreases?

A)Torsion balance angular deflection error
B)Increased environmental vibration susceptibility
C)Decreased lead sphere gravitational constant
D)Weak equivalence principle observational breakdown

💡 Explanation

Decreased gravitational mass in the experiment requires a more sensitive torsion balance and is more influenced by environmental vibrations using Newtonian gravitation for small-scale measurements (not relativity) rather than the other outcomes due to the Weak Equivalence peinciple.
