Calculate the force of gravity between a 2.50 kg newborn baby and a 80.0 kg doctor standing 0.250 m away. G = 6.67 E -11 N*m2/kg2

Remember to include your data, equation, and work when solving this problem

anonymous · Answer

$$F=\frac{gm_1m_2}{r^2}$$

isnt this the equation for gravitational force

this is completely from memory so it could be wrong

anonymous · Answer

yes!

anonymous · Answer

so does that solve your problem?

anonymous · Answer

how do i plug it in i can solve it than

anonymous · Answer

...

anonymous · Answer

m1 = mass of object 1 or baby
m2=mass of object 2 or doctor
g= gravitational constant
r= distance between 2 objects

anonymous · Answer

F= force, usually in newtons depending on gravitational constant

anonymous · Answer

Im confused

anonymous · Answer

Fg = [(6.67 E -11 N*m^2/kg^2 )(2.50 kg)(80.0 kg)]/(0.250)^2

anonymous · Answer

kg is a unit of mass

anonymous · Answer

m is a unit of distance
