A bowling ball (mass = 7.2 kg, radius = 0.11 m) and a billiard ball (mass = 0.38 kg, radius = 0.028 m) may each be treated as uniform spheres. What is the magnitude of the maximum gravitational force that each can exert on the other?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of bowling ball M1=7.2kg

The radius of bowling ball r1=0.11m

Mass of billiard ball M2=0.38kg

The radius of the Billiard ball r2=0.028m

Gravitational constant

G=6.67×10^-11Nm²/kg²

The magnitude of their distance apart is given as

r=r1+r2

r=0.028+0.11

r=0.138m

Then, gravitational force is given as

F=GM1M2/r²

F=6.67×10^-11×7.2×0.38/0.138²

F=9.58×10^-9N

The force of attraction between the two balls is

F=9.58×10^-9N
