Question

Two objects with equal masses of 1 kg each are separated by a distance of 1 m. The grantational forme between the objects is

Answer 1

6.675 x 10^{-11} newton

Answer 2

The gravitational force between two objects is given by Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

$F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

Where:

• $F$ is the gravitational force
• $G$ is the universal gravitational constant ($6.675 \times 10^{-11} \text{ N m}^2/\text{kg}^2$)
• $m_1$ is the mass of the first object
• $m_2$ is the mass of the second object
• $r$ is the distance between the centers of the two objects

Given values from the question:

• $m_1 = 1 \text{ kg}$
• $m_2 = 1 \text{ kg}$
• $r = 1 \text{ m}$

Substitute these values into the formula:

$F = (6.675 \times 10^{-11} \text{ N m}^2/\text{kg}^2) \frac{(1 \text{ kg})(1 \text{ kg})}{(1 \text{ m})^2}$

$F = (6.675 \times 10^{-11}) \frac{1}{1} \text{ N}$

$F = 6.675 \times 10^{-11} \text{ N}$

The gravitational force between the objects is $6.675 \times 10^{-11}$ newton.
