    The force of gravity on a certain object is calculated through the equation,

    F = Gm1m2 / r²

    where F is the force, G is a constant, m1 and m2 are masses of the object and Earth, respectively and r is the distance. Substituting the known values for this item,

    F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N. m²/kg²) (1 kg) (5.98 x 10²⁴ kg) / (6.4 x 10⁶ m) ²

    F = 9.37 N

    Answer: 9.37 N
