उत्तर

Given:

Distance (r) = 1 m, mass (m1) = 75 kg, mass (m2) = 80 kg, gravitational constant (G) = 6.67 × 10-11 Nm2/kg2 

To find:

Gravitational force (F)

F = `("Gm"_1"m"_2)/"r"^2`   ...[From formula]

F = `(6.67 xx 10^-11 xx 75 xx 80)/1^2`

F = 40020 × 10−11
F = 4.002 × 104 × 10−11

∴ F = 4.002 × 10-7 N

The gravitational force between Mahendra and Virat is 4.002 × 10-7 N.
