Explanation:
recall from newton's law of gravitation
G=gravitational constant
mshew=50g
melephant=5*10^3kg
rearth=radius of the earth 6400km or 6400000m
mearth= masss of the earth
Gm(shrew)m(earth)/r(earth)^2 = Gm(elephant)m(earth)/r^2
strike out the left hand side and right hand side variables
m(shrew)/r(earth)^2 = m(elephant)/r^2
r^2 = m(elephant).r(earth)^2 / m(shrew) .........make r^2 the subject of the equation
r^2=
r^2=40960000000000
r=2023857702.507m
