Write the formula to find the
magnitude of the gravitational
force between the earth and an
object on the surface of the earth.
The formula to find the magnitude of the gravitational force between the Earth and an object on its surface is: F = GMm/R², where:
F: is the gravitational force.
G: is the universal gravitational constant (approximately 6.674 × 10⁻¹¹ N⋅m²/kg²).
M: is the mass of the Earth.
m: is the mass of the object.
R: is the radius of the Earth.
