Two bodies of masses 1 kg and `6 xx 10^(24)` kg are placed with their centres `6.38 xx 10^(6)m` apart. Calculate the force of attraction between the two masses. Also find the initial acceleration of the two masses. [Assume that no other forces act on them]

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps:
### Step 1: Identify the given values
- Mass of the first body (M1) = 1 kg
- Mass of the second body (M2) = \(6 \times 10^{24}\) kg
- Distance between the centers of the two masses (R) = \(6.38 \times 10^{6}\) m
- Gravitational constant (G) = \(6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2\)
