    In order to calculate the gravitational force of the two bodies we use the formula which is expressed as:

    F = GMm/R²

    where G = 6.67 x 10^-11 in SI unit, M and m are the mass of the two bodies and R is the distance between them.

    F = 6.67 x 10^-11 (1.99*10^30) (6*10^24) / (1.50*10^11) ²

    F = 3.53*10^22 N
