Calculate the gravitational force between two elephants, one has a
mass of 1x10kg and the other of mass of 8x102kg when they are apart
at a distance of 5m.


Sagot :

Answer:

2.177088 * 10^-8 N

Explanation:

solution;

mass(m1) = 1 * 10 kg

mass(m2) = 8 * 102 kg

distance(d) = 5m

universal gravitational constant (G) =6.67 * 10^-11

we know that,

gravitational force = (G*m1*m2)/d^2

=((6.67 *10^-11) *(1 *10)*(8 *102))/5^2

=(5.44272 * 10^-7)/25

=2.177088 *10^-8

Gravitational force = 2.177088 * 10^-8
