Question

Calculate the gravitational force between two bodies of masses 10kg and 55kg, if they are placed at a distance of 2m apart. ​

Answer 1

F = 9.177*10^-9N

Step-by-step explanation:

Gravitational force between the two bodies is expressed as;

F = GMm/r²

Given tha

M = 55kg

m = 10kg

r = 2m

G = 6.67408 × 10-11 m³ kg-1 s-2

Substitute;

F = GMm/r²

F = 6.67408 × 10-11*55*10/2²

F = 3,670.744× 10-11/4

F = 9.177*10^-9N
