Answer:
Gravitational force, [tex]F=1.003\times 10^{-11}\ N[/tex]
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of roast beef sandwich, m₁ = 0.05 kg
Mass of hungry tarantula, m₂ = 87 gm = 0.087 kg
Distance between two objects, d = 17 cm = 0.17 m
We need to find the gravitational force between them. It is given by :
[tex]F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{d^2}[/tex]
[tex]F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{0.05\ kg\times 0.087\ kg}{(0.17\ m)^2}[/tex]
[tex]F=1.003\times 10^{-11}\ N[/tex]
So, the gravitational force between two objects is [tex]F=1.003\times 10^{-11}\ N[/tex]. Hence, this is the required solution.
