Two 700-kg masses (1543 lb) are separated by a distance of 33 m. Using Newton's law of gravitation, find the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by one mass on the other. (Use G = 6.67 × 10^-11 N·m^2/kg^2.) (Round the final answer to four decimal places.) The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by one mass on the other is ___ × 10^-9 N.

Question 2 The gravitational force between two objects with identical masses that are 10 m apart, is 2.67 x10-10 N. To the nearest kg, what is the mass of each object? G= Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10-11 N m²/kg² 2 kg 10 kg 20 kg 200 kg

According to the Law of Universal Gravitation, the attractive force $F$ in Newtons between any two bodies in the universe is directly proportional to the product of the masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ in kilograms of the two bodies and the product of the masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ in kilograms of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of the distance $d$ in meters between the bodies. That is, $F=G \frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{d_{2}} . G$ is the universal gravitational constant. Its value is $6.67 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{Nm}^{2} / \mathrm{kg}^{2}$. The distance between Earth and the Moon is about $3.84 \times 10^{8}$ meters. The mass of the Moon is $7.36 \times 10^{22}$ kilograms. The mass of Earth is $5.97 \times 10^{24}$ kilograms. What is the gravitational force that the Moon and Earth exert upon each other?
