Question

Romeo and Juliet are sitting on a balcony 1.5 meters apart. If Romeo has a mass of 61.6 Kg and Juliet has a mass of 48.8 kg. What is the attractive force between them?

Answer 1

$\begin{gathered} m_{Romeo}=61.6\text{ kg} \\ m_{Juliet}=48.8\text{ kg} \\ r=1.5\text{ m} \\ G=6.673x10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2 \\ F=G*\frac{m_{Juliet}m_{Romeo}}{r^2} \\ \\ F=\left(6.673x10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2\right)\frac{\left(48.8\text{ kg}\right)\left(61.6\text{ kg}\right)}{\left(1.5\text{ m}\right)^2} \\ \\ F=8.91x10^{-8}N \\ The\text{ attractive force is 8.91x10}^{-8}\text{N} \end{gathered}$
