![1.4*10^-7N](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/high-school/gowmgf2k9vfhls7zhmnicd88gp6h5m7ydq.png)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
mass m1= 87 kg
mass m2=60kg
sitting distance r= 0.5m
The gravitational constant G= 6.67*10^-11Nm^2/kg^2
Required
The Force of attraction between the two bodies
Step two:
Applying the formula for the force of attraction by gravity on two bodies
![F=(Gm1m2)/(r^2)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/high-school/yzk7mbe0uyeawcpwj8m7birbq62e3k2nz0.png)
substituting our data we have
![F=(6.67*10^-^1^1 *87*60)/(0.5^2)\\\\F=(3.48174*10^-^7)/(0.25^2)\\\\F=1.4*10^(-7)N](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/high-school/9gxy8oazl9uv34lfuq9un4zcrocspqyufa.png)
