Answer :
We know that, Gravitational force acting between two object is given by:
F = G× ...........(1)
G is the Gravitational constant = 6.7 × 10-11 Nm2/kg2
m1 is the Mass of earth = 6 × 1024 kg
m2 is the Mass of sun, m2 = 2 × 1030 kg
r is the distance between the earth and the sun= 1.5 × 1011 m
Now, putting all these values in equation 1, we get:
F =
F = 3.57 × 1022 N
The Force exerted on the Earth by the sun is 3.5 × 1022 N
