1. What is the gravitational force of attraction between
two persons 1/2 m apart if
their masses are both equal to 60 kilograms?
2. How far should a 5 x10^5 Kg body be from a 7 x 10^4
Kg body so that the force of attraction between them is
approximately 4.63 N?
3. The acceleration due to gravity in the moon is One-
sixth (1/6)that of the earth. How much will a 720-kg
body on earth weigh on the moon?
