Answer: 5.0025 * 10^-8 N

Step-by-step explanation:


F = (Gm_1m_2)/(r^(2) )

F = gravitational force

G (is a constant) = 6.67×
10^(-11) N(m/kg)^2

m1 = mass of first object = 500 kg

m2 = mass of second object = 600 kg

r = distance between them = 20 M


6.67*10^(-11)N(m/kg)^2* (500 kg*600 kg)/((20m)^2)\\6.67*10^(-11)N*(m^2)/(kg^2) * (300000kg^2)/(400m^2)\\6.67*10^(-11) N * 750\\5002.5 * 10^(-11) N \\5.0025 * 10^(-8) N
