Answer:
F₁₋₂ = 1.036*10⁻⁵ [N]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must use the law of universal gravitation, which can be defined by means of the following expression.
[tex]F_{1-2}=G*\frac{m_{1}*m_{2}}{d^{2} }[/tex]
where:
F₁₋₂ = Force among the two bodies [N]
G = Universal gravity constant = 6.67 *10⁻¹¹ [N*m²/kg²]
m₁ = mass of the first body = 3.5*10 [kg]
m₂ = mass of the second body = 3*10¹² [kg]
d = separation distance = 26000 [m]
Now replacing:
[tex]F_{1-2}=6.67*10^{-11}*\frac{3.5*10*3*10^{12} }{26000^{2} } \\F_{1-2}=1.036*10^{-5}[N][/tex]
