Problem 3.28 (a) In outer space, far from other objects, block 1 of mass 51 kg is at position <5, 15, 0> m, and block 2 of

mass 1550 kg is located at position <13, 15, 0> m. What is the (vector) gravitational force acting on block 2 due to block 1? It helps to make a sketch of the situation.

Answer: 8.242 × 10 exp -8 N

Explanation: F = G *m* M/r^2

r = √(13-5)^² + (51-15)^² + (0-0)²

r = 8; the distance between the masses

G =6.673 × 10 -¹¹ Nm²kg-²

F = gravitational force of attraction of m(51kg) on M {1550kg)
