Answer:
F=GMm/r^2
F=(6.67×10^-11)(6×10^24)(1)/(6.4×10^6)^2
F=40.02×10^13/40.96×10^12
F=0.977×10
or approx
F=10 newton
hope it works

Answer:
From Newton’s law of gravitation, we know that the force of attraction between the bodies is given by F =gm1m2/r²
Here,
m1 = mass of Earth = 6.0 x 1024kg
m2 = mass of the body = 1kg
r = distance between the two bodies
Radius of Earth = 6.4 x 106m
G = Universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2kg-2
By substituting all the values in the equation
F = 6.67 x 1011 (6 x 1024 x 1 ) / (6.4 x 106)2
F = 9.8 N
This shows that Earth exerts a force of 9.8 N on a body of mass 1 kg. The body will exert an equal force of attraction of 9.8 N on the Earth.
