The mass of the Earth is 6 × 10²⁴ kg
The distance between the Earth and Sun is 1.5 × 10¹¹ m
The Gravitational Force between the two is 3.5 × 10²² N
Mass of the Sun , M
The gravitational force between two objects is given by ,
where ,
F denotes gravitational force
G denotes gravitational constant
M denotes mass of the sun
m denotes mass of the earth
r denotes distance between M and m
Given ,
m = 6 × 10²⁴ kg
M = ? kg
r = 1.5 × 10¹¹ m
G = 6.7 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²kg²
F = 3.5 × 10²² N
Apply formula ,
So , Mass of the sun = 1.967 × 10³⁰ kg
