Answer:
18,500 N
Explanation:
Gravitational force on an object is:
F = GMm / r²
where G is the universal gravitational constant (6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²),
M is the mass of one object (the planet),
m is the mass of the other object,
and r is the distance between the object centers.
Plugging in values:
F = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) (2190 kg) / (6.37×10⁶ m + 5.07×10⁵ m)²
F = (8.74×10¹⁷ Nm²) / (6.877×10⁶ m)²
F = 0.185×10⁵ N
F = 18,500 N
