Question

13. Calculate the force of gravity between the Sun and Mercury. Show all of your work.

G = 6.67x10-¹¹ Nm²/kg²
r = 5.791x10¹0 m
MMercury = 3.285x10 23 kg
Msun 1.99x1030 kg

Answer 1

Calculate the force of gravitation between sun (Mass = 1.9 × 10 30 kg) and planet mercury (Mass = 3.2 × 10 23 kg). Distance between them is approx. 67.5
