We have that the magnitude of the gravitational force is mathematically given as

f=6.377N

Question Parameters:

Earth exerts a 100 N gravitational force on a metal box.

(Mass of the earth is 6e24 kg and radius of the earth is 6.4e6m.)

Generally the equation for the Gravitational mForce is mathematically given as

$F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\\Therefore\\\\F=\frac{100/9.8* 6e116e24}{6.4e6^2}$

f=6.377N
