Answer 1

Answer:

755.37 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of venus=$m_1=4.9\times 10^{24}kg$

Radius=$r=6.1\times 10^6$m

Mass of human=$m_2=86 kg$

We know that the gravitational force between two bodies

$F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

Where G=Gravitational constant=$6.67\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2$

Using the formula

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=$F=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 86\times 4.9\times 10^{24}}{(6.1\times 10^6)^2}$

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=$755.37N$
