Answer:
[tex]6.67\cdot 10^{-3} N[/tex]
Explanation:
The gravitational force between two objects is given by
[tex]F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}[/tex]
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1, m2 are the two masses
r is the separation between the two masses
In this problem, we have
[tex]m_1 = m_2 = 2.0 \cdot 10^4 kg[/tex] the mass of each truck
r = 2.0 m is their separation
Substituting,
[tex]F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(2.0\cdot 10^4 kg)^2}{(2.0 m)^2}=6.67\cdot 10^{-3} N[/tex]
