EQUATIONS - Question one-
Gravitational Force ME = 5-97×1024 kg
ME MM
I Newtons Law of gravitation - MM = 7-37×1022 Kg
F= ¥eo 'r? • gravity acts between any 2 objects with mass. P mass = 100kg

E= Far, ALWAYS ATTRACTIVE

• Force of gravity is an example of an inverse square relationship:

VE-4¥ • C) indicates that force acts in opposite direction to distance.
