Question

what is the force of attraction on a body of mass 150kg lying on the surface of the earth? mass of the earth = 6×10²⁴
radius of earth = 6.4×10⁶​

Answer 1

Answer:

740N

Step-by-step explanation:

The gravitational force can be calculated with the aaFg=GMmR2aa

where:

Fg=gravitational force

G=gravitational constant

M=mass of Earth

m=mass of object

R=distance from earth's centre to object's centre
