Question

#1 - Saturn has a mass of 5.683 x 10^26 kg. One of its moons, Titan, has a

mass of 1.345x10^23 kg. The center of Saturn to the center of Titan is 1.222
x 10^6 m. What is the magnitude of the gravitational force that attracts
Saturn and Titan? Please show work and formula

Answer 1

F = G M1 M2 / R^2 attractive force

F = 6.67 * 10E-11 * 5.683 * 10E26 * 1.345 * 10E23 / (1.222 * 106)^2 N

F = 6.67 * 5.683 * 1.345 / 1.493 * 10E26 N = 3.414 * 10E27 N
