Calculate the gravitational force of attraction between two bodies of masses 40 kg and 80 kg separated by a distance 15 m. Take `G= 6.7 xx 10^(-11) N m^2 kg^(-2)`

Explanation

To calculate the gravitational force of attraction between two bodies of masses 40 kg and 80 kg separated by a distance of 15 m, we can use the formula derived from Newton's law of universal gravitation:

\[ F = \frac{G \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{r^2} \]

Where:
- \( F \) is the gravitational force of attraction,
- \( G \) is the universal gravitational constant (\( 6.7 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \)),
- \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) are the masses of the two bodies,
