The force of attraction between two bodies at a certain separation is 10 N. What will be the force of attraction between them if the separation is reduced to half ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we will use Newton's Law of Gravitation, which states that the force of attraction (F) between two masses (m1 and m2) separated by a distance (d) is given by: \[ F = \frac{G \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{d^2} \] Where: - \( F \) is the gravitational force, - \( G \) is the gravitational constant, - \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) are the masses of the two bodies, ...
