What is the gravitational force of attraction between a mountain of mass 56 thousand tons and a person of mass 75 kg, if their center of masses are 1 m apart. Write your answer in milli-newtons.
Added by Rhonda F.
Step 1
674 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \), - \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) are the masses of the two objects, - \( r \) is the distance between the centers of the two masses. ** Show more…

Mountain located 12.5 km from a person exerts a gravitational force on them equal to 2.00% of their weight. The gravitational constant G is 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2, and the acceleration due to gravity g at the surface of the Earth is 9.81 m/s^2. Calculate the mass M of the mountain.
