Question

1. calculate the force of gravitation between the earth and the sun, given that the

mass of earh=6* 1024 kg mass of sun= 2* 1030 kg the average distance between he two is 1.5*1011 m

Open in App
Solution

Mass of earth, Me = 6 × 1024 kg

Mass of sun, Ms = 2 × 1030 kg

Distance, R = 1.5 × 1011 m

Now, F = GMeMs/R2

=> F = (6.673 × 10-11)( 6 × 1024)( 2 × 1030)/( 1.5 × 1011)2

=> F = 3.559 × 1022 N
