  • Calculating Gravitational Force: A Step-by-Step Guide
    You're asking for the gravitational force between two objects. To calculate this, we need to use Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

    F = G * (m1 * m2) / r²

    Where:

    * F is the gravitational force

    * G is the gravitational constant (approximately 6.674 × 10⁻¹¹ N⋅m²/kg²)

    * m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects

    * r is the distance between the centers of the two objects

    Let's plug in the values:

    * m1 = 25 kg

    * m2 = 55 kg

    * r = 4.00 m

    F = (6.674 × 10⁻¹¹ N⋅m²/kg²) * (25 kg * 55 kg) / (4.00 m)²

    F ≈ 5.77 × 10⁻⁹ N

    Therefore, the gravitational force between the two objects is approximately 5.77 × 10⁻⁹ Newtons.
