Medium MCQ +4 / -1

Two bodies each of mass 100 kg are placed 1 m apart. The gravitational force between them is approximately (with $G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11}$ N·m²/kg²):

  1. A $6.67 \times 10^{-7}$ N Correct answer
  2. B $6.67 \times 10^{-6}$ N
  3. C $6.67 \times 10^{-8}$ N
  4. D $6.67 \times 10^{-5}$ N

Solution

$F = G m_1 m_2 / r^2 = 6.67\times10^{-11} \times 10^4 / 1 = 6.67\times10^{-7}$ N.
