Answer:

1.48×10⁻⁷ Newtons

Explanation:

From the question,

According to newton's law of universal gravitation.

F = Gmm'/r²........................ Equation 1

F = gravitational force, G = gravitational constant, m = mass of the first ball, m' = mass of the second ball, r = distance between the balls.

Given: m = m' = 8 kg, r = 17 cm = 0.17 m,

Constant : G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F =  (6.67×10⁻¹¹×8×8)/(0.17²)

F = 1.48×10⁻⁷ N
