Answer:
1.334×10⁻¹⁰ N
Explanation:
From Newton's Law,
F = Gm'm/r²................ Equation 1
Where F = Gravitational force, m' = mass 1, m = mass 2, r = center to center distance, G = Universal constant.
Given: m' = 10 g = 0.01 kg, m = 0.5 kg, r = 0.05 m
Constant: G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²
Substitute into equation 1
F =6.67×10⁻¹¹(0.01)(0.5)/0.05²
F = 1.334×10⁻¹⁰ N.
Hence the the gravitational force = 1.334×10⁻¹⁰ N.
