calculate gravitational force between the the earth and the moon.The mass of the earth is 6 x 10²⁴ Kg and that of the moon is 7.4×10²² Kg and the distance between them is 3.84 ×10⁵Km
Answers
Answer:
Given that,
Mass of the Earth mm =6×10²⁴Kg
Mass of the Moon mm =7.4×10²² kg
Distance between the Earth and the Moon D=3.84×10⁵km=3.84×10⁸m
Gravitational Constant G=6.7×10-¹¹Nm²/kg²
Gm1m2
Now, by using Newton’s law of gravitation F = ---------------
r²
6.7×10-¹¹×6×10²⁴×7.4×10²²
F = ----------------------------------------
(3.84×10⁸)²
297.48×10³⁵
F = ----------------------
14.8225×10¹⁶
F = 20.069×10¹⁹
F = 20.1×10¹⁹N
Hence, the gravitational force of attraction is 20.1×10¹⁹N
