Example 10.1 The mass of the earth is
6 x 1024 kg and that of the moon is
7.4 x 1022 kg. If the distance between the
earth and the moon is 3.84x105 km,
calculate the force exerted by the earth on
the moon. (Take G=6.7 x 10-11 N m² kg)

Answer:
Hopen it helps.and please mark this as a brainliest answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the Earth m
1
=6×10
24
Kg
Mass of the Moon m
2
=7.4×10
22
kg
Distance between the Earth and the Moon d=3.84×10
5
km=3.84×10
8
m
Gravitational Constant G=6.7×10
−11
Nm

Now, by using Newton’s law of gravitation
F=
r

F=
(3.84×10

6.7×10
−11
×6×10

×7.4×10
22
F=
14.8225×10
