Calculate the force of gravitation between the earth the sun, given that the mass of the earth `=6xx10^(24)`kg and mass of the sun `=2xx10^(30)`kg. The average distance between the two is `1.5xx10^(11)m`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `F=?,m_(1)=6xx10^(24)kg, m_(2)=2xx10^(30)kg`
`r=1.5xx10^(11)m, G=6.7xx10-11Nm^(2)//kg^(2)`
`F=(Gm_(1)m_(2))/r^(2)=(6.7xx10^(-11)xx(6xx10^(24))xx(2xx10^(30)))/((1.5xx10^(11))^(2))=3.57xx10^(22)N`
