The force of gravity between two objects is given by:
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is their separation
In this problem, the mass of the object is
, while the Earth's mass is 
. Their separation is 
, therefore the gravitational force exerted on the object is
