In Cavendish's experiment, let each small mass be `20g` and each large mass be `5kg`. The rod connecting the small masses is `50cm` long, while the small and the large spheres are separated by `10.0cm.` The torsion constant is `4.8xx10^(-8) kg m^2 s^(-2)` and the resulting angular deflection is `0.4^@`. Calculate the value of universal gravitational constant `G` from this data.
