Gravitational force between 2 objects . . .

F = G · m₁ · m₂ / D²

-- You said that F = 3.5 x 10²² Newtons.

-- G = the gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m² / kg²

-- You want to find D .

F = G · m₁ · m₂ / D²

Multiply each side by D² . . .  D² · F = G · m₁ · m₂

Divide each side by F . . .  D² = G · m₁ · m₂ / F

So finally . . . D = √(G · m₁ · m₂ / F )

D = √(6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg² · Earth mass · Sun mass / 3.5 x 10²² N)

<em>D = 4.37 x 10⁻¹⁷ · √(Earth mass · Sun mass) </em> meters

Grilled cheese or Cheese toasty??
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

<em>Toasties are British in origin and were usually made in ovens. They were the same as a grilled cheese but the bread was not buttered. Some Brits would make them in a pan in the oven, too, which is even closer to the stove-top grilled cheese.</em>

A baseball bat exerts a force of magnitude F on a
dlinn [17]
1. F

This phenomenon is in accordance with Newton's Third Law of Motion, which states that when a body exerts a force on a second body, the second body exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first body. The masses of the bodies are irrelevant in this case.
