Question

Two buckets of paint each have a mass of 9 kg. If the gravitational force between them is 6.0x10 to the power of minus 10, how far apart are they?

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

3.0 m

Answer 2

Gravitational force = (gravity x mass1x mass2)/distance^2

6.0x10^-10 = (6.67x10^-11 x 9 x 9)/d^2

D = sqrt(6.0x10^-10/6.67x10^-11 x81)

D = 3.0 m

The answer is B.3.0 m
