Hey /sci/ how do?
Two students stting in adjacent seats in a lecture room have weights of 633 N and 694 N. Assume that Newton's law of universal gravitation can be applied to these two students and find the gravitational force (in Newtons) that one student exerts on the other when they are separated by 0.792 m. Consider entering your answer using scientific notation. And keep the answer in Newtons?

Stupid, you're supposed to read the directions. The answer is 42.0 x 10*2

It's 4.2 x 10^1 If you wanted to write it without moving the decimal it would be 42.0 X 10^0.
