Calculate the magnitude of gravitational field intensity at a point 0.50 m0.50\,\text{m} from a 5.0 kg5.0\,\text{kg} point mass. (Take G=6.67×10−11 N m2/kg2G = 6.67\times10^{-11}\,\text{N m}^2\text{/kg}^2.) (a) 2.7×10−9 N/kg2.7\times10^{-9}\,\text{N/kg} (b) 1.3×10−9 N/kg1.3\times10^{-9}\,\text{N/kg} (c) 6.7×10−10 N/kg6.7\times10^{-10}\,\text{N/kg} (d) 1.3×10−10 N/kg1.3\times10^{-10}\,\text{N/kg}
