Question

Mass of an object is 12 kg. Find the magnitude of the gravitational force

with which it is attracted by the earth.​

Answer 1

Answer:

gravity extract toward on earth

Answer 2

Explanation:

g (acceleration due to gravity) on the moon is 1/6 as that on the earth. Mass remains the same everywhere (does not depends on the gravitational force) but weight changes due to gravity (does depends on the gravitational force).

As we know that:

F= GMm/R^2

F= 6.676×10^-11×6×10^24×12/(6.4×10^6)^2

F= 477.1×10^-13/40.96×10^12

F= 477.1×10^-13×10^-12/40.96

F= 477.1×10^-25/40.96

F= 11.65×10^-25 N

hope it helps :)
