Whats the force of gravitation of a 10kg rock and 100kg boulder which are 5 meters apart

F = 2.6692 x 10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the rock, m = 10 kg

The mass of the boulder, M = 100 kg

The distance between them, d = 5 m

The gravitational force between the two bodies is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. It is given by the formula

                                    F = GMm/d²  newton

Where,

                                 G - Universal gravitational constant

Substituting the given values,

                                 F = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ x 100 x 10 / 5²

                                 F = 2.6692 X 10⁻⁹ N

Hence, the force between the two bodies is, F = 2.6692 X 10⁻⁹ N
