Answer:

The mass of the object must be determined

The distance between the two objects is measured

Equation must be solved: All units must be expressed by the metric system and on the corresponding scale

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The mass of the object must be determined

The distance between the two objects is measured

Equation must be solved: All units must be expressed by the metric system and on the corresponding scale

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the gravitational force you must follow a procedure, it has the following steps:

The equation must be defined for the force of gravity to find the gravity of the object: To find the gravity of two objects that are far away you must take into account the masses of the objects

Formula: Fgrav(Gm1, m2)/d2

f: strength

G: constant of universal gravitation

M1: mass of the first object

M2: mass of the second object

D: distance between objects

Metric distances should be used: the masses of the objects must be expressed in Kg( kilograms) and the distance in M (meters)
