What is the force of gravity between the earth and the mass of 1kg placed on its surface? (Mass of earth = 6 x 10^24 kg)​

Respuesta :

Given that,

Mass, m = 1 kg

Mass of the Earth, [tex]M=6\times 10^{24}\ kg[/tex]

Radius of Earth, r = 6378  km

To find,

The gravitational force.

Solution,

The formula for the gravitational force is given by :

[tex]F=\dfrac{GmM}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1\times 6\times 10^{24}}{(6378 \times 10^3)^2}\\\\F=9.83\ N[/tex]

So, the required force is 9.83 N.
