Mahendra and Virat are sitting at a distance of 1 m from each other.Their masses are 75 kg and 80 kg respectively. What is the gravitational force between them? (G = 6.67 × 10-11 Nm2/kg2)
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)
Formula: F = `("Gm"_1"m"_2)/"r"^2`
Calculation: From formula,
F = `(6.67 xx 10^-11 xx 75 xx 80)/1^2`
∴ F = 4.002 × 10-7 N
The gravitational force between Mahendra and Virat is 4.002 × 10-7 N.

The earth and the moon are attracted to each other by gravitational force. Does the earth attract the moon with a force that is greater or smaller or the same as the force with which the moon attracts the earth? Why?
If you compare the gravitational force on the Earth due to the Sun to that due to the Moon, you would find that the Sun’s pull is greater than the Moon’s pull. (You can check this yourself using the data available in the succeeding exercises). However, the tidal effect of the Moon’s pull is greater than the tidal effect of Sun. Why?
