Calculate the gravitational force between a 15 kg chinchilla and a 65 kg dog which are separated by 0.30 m.
Given G = 6.67x10-11 N m2 kg-2.
Fg = 3.7x10-8 N
Fg = 1.3x1012 N
Fg = 1.1x105 N
Fg = 7.2x10-7 N
What would the gravitational force be between the Sun and Mars if they were 2.3 x 1011 m apart? The masses for the Sun and Jupiter are 1.99 x 1030 kg and 6.42 x 1023kg, respectively. Given G = 6.67x10-11 N m2 kg-2.
Fg = 3.8 x 1015 N
Fg = 2.8 x 10-42 N
Fg = 1.6 x 1021 N
Fg = 4.6 x 10-75 N
