What is the gravitational force between two students, John and Mike, if John has a mass of 81.0 kg, Mike has a mass of 93.0 kg, and their centers are separated by a distance of .620 m?

1.31×10¯⁶ N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of John (M₁) = 81 Kg

Mass of Mike (M₂) = 93 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 0.620 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force (F) =?

The gravitational force between the two students, John and Mike, can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 81 × 93 / 0.62²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 7533 / 0.3844

F = 1.31×10¯⁶ N

Therefore, the gravitational force between the two students, John and Mike, is 1.31×10¯⁶ N

i just did an experiment like this in my science class. also the answer is yes, it will get separated because they are two opposites meaning if they are opposite they can not attract.

hope this .!
