The mass of the sun is 2 × 1030 kg and the mass of the earth is 6 × 1024 kg. If the average distance between the sun and the earth be 1.5 × 108 km, calculate the force of gravitation between them.

Answer»

Distance, d = 1.5×108 km = 1.5×1011

Mass of the sun, m = 2×1030 kg 

Mass of the earth, M = 6×1024 kg 

Force of gravitation, F = G(m.M/d2

F = 3.57×1022 N
