Jupiter is 318 times more massive than Earth. Based upon mass alone (i.e, if you were to place Jupiter at the same distance from the Sun as Earth), what would be the gravitational force between Jupiter and the Sun in units of "Earth-pulls?"

Respuesta :

Answer:

318 Earth-pull

Explanation:

Using Newton's law of gravitational force

F = GMm / r²

F is directly proportional to mass

let earth  = m

then m .......... Earth-pull

        318 m = 318 m × Earth-pull / m = 318 Earth-pull
