Problem 1.21 Problem 1.21 Two particles have a mass of 7.8 kg and 130 kg, Part A If they are 800 mm apart, determine the force of gravity acting between them. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. F. Value Units My Answers Give Up Part B Compare this result with the weight of each particle. Find weight of the first particle. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. a Value Units Submit My Answers Che Up Part C Find weight of the second particle Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Signed in asExplanation / Answer
F= (G*M1*M2)/r^2
where G= 6.67 x 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2.
F=(6.67 x 10-11*7.8*13)/0.8^2
=-1638.59N
Weight of first particle=W=mg=6.8*9.81=76.518N
weight of second particle=13*9.81=127.53N
