The gravitational force between two iden...

The gravitational force between two identical objects at a separation of 1m is 0.0667 xx 10^(-6). Find the mass of each object
(`G = 6.67 xx 10^(-11) Nm^(2)//kg^(2)` and `g = 10m//s^(2)`)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given that r=1 m , `E=0.0667xx10^(-6) xx 10N`
Let `m_1=m_2=m`
The gravitational force `F=(Gm_1m_2)/r^2`
`0.0667xx10^(-6)xx10=6.67xx10^(-11)xxm^2/1^2`=m = 100 kg
