These masses will attract each other with a force of 40.0 N.

The answer is option D.

How do find the force between 2 masses?

To calculate the force of gravity of an object, use the formula: the force of gravity = mg, where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration of the object due to gravity.

From the given equation,

F = G \(m_{1}m_{2\)/\(r_{2}\)

What is gravitational force?

The gravitational force is a force that attracts any two objects with mass. We call the gravitational force attractive because it always tries to pull masses together, it never pushes them apart. In fact, every object, including you, is pulling on every other object in the entire universe.
