Question

Gravitational force between two bodies is 5N When they are placed at the distance of 1om.. How much gravitational force will be produced if they are kept at the distance of 20m.​

Answer 1

F = 1.25 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to calculate Gravitational Force is

F = G (m1 . m2) / r^2

where G is gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the mass of the 2 objects.

So, assuming that the G, m1, m2 is constant, the equation will be

F1 .
`r1^(2)`= F2 .
`r2^(2)`

Therefore,

F2 = F1 .
`r1^(2)` /
`r2^(2)`

And finally we just need to find F2 by inserting this value

F1 = 5N

r1 = 10m

r2 = 20m

I hope you can understand, let me know if you need more explanation.
