Two objects have masses m1=10,kgm_1 = 10 ,\text{kg}m1​=10,kg and m2=20,kgm_2 = 20 ,\text{kg}m2​=20,kg, and their centers are separated by a distance of r=2,mr = 2 ,\text{m}r=2,m. What is the gravitational force between them? (Use G=6.674×10−11,N⋅m2/kg2G = 6.674 \times 10^{-11} ,\text{N} \cdot \text{m}^2/\text{kg}^2G=6.674×10−11,N⋅m2/kg2)
