Answer:
[tex]F_{g} = 4.8[/tex] × [tex]10^{-7}[/tex] [tex]N[/tex]
Explanation:
The law of gravitational attraction states :
[tex]F_{g} = G\frac{Mm}{R^{2} }[/tex]
G is the gravitational constant [tex](6.67[/tex] × [tex]10^{-11}[/tex][tex])[/tex]
M is the larger mass (kg)
m is the smaller mass (kg)
R is the distance separating the two objects ([tex]m^{2}[/tex])
∴ [tex]F_{g} =[/tex] [tex](6.67[/tex] × [tex]10^{-11}[/tex][tex])[/tex] [tex](4000)(180)/(10)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]F_{g} = 4.8[/tex] × [tex]10^{-7}[/tex] [tex]N[/tex] is the gravitational force between the elephant and the lion.
