If two objects each have a mass of 200kg and exert a gravitational force between them of 4.2 x 10^-6N, what is the distance between them?

Answer 1

Use Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

which you can solve for "d" be multiplying both sides by d², dividing both sides by "F", and then taking the square root so:

G is the Gravitation Constant and the value is 6.674 x 10^-11 Nm²/kg², m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the two objects in question, F is the force of gravity between the objects, and "d" is the distance.
