Answer 1

755.37 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mass of venus=
`m_1=4.9* 10^(24)kg`

Radius=
`r=6.1* 10^6`m

Mass of human=
`m_2=86 kg`

We know that the gravitational force between two bodies

`F=G(m_1m_2)/(r^2)`

Where G=Gravitational constant=
`6.67* 10^(-11)Nm^2/kg^2`

Using the formula

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=
`F=(6.67* 10^(-11)* 86* 4.9* 10^(24))/((6.1* 10^6)^2)`

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=
`755.37N`
