Answer:
0.0334N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
M1 = 5 x 10⁶kg
M2 = 1 x 10⁶kg
Distance = 100m
Unknown:
Gravitational force = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the Newton's law of universal gravitation.
Fg = [tex]\frac{G m1 m2}{r^{2} }[/tex]
G is the universal gravitation constant
m is the mass
r is the distance
Fg = [tex]\frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 5 x 10^{6} x 1 x 10^{6} }{100^{2} }[/tex] = 0.0334N
