Answer:

[tex]9.01\times 10^{-31}\ kg[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

The gravitational force between two electrons is [tex]5.42\times 10^{-71}\ N[/tex]

The electrons are 1 m apart.

The formula for the gravitational force is given by :

[tex]F=G\dfrac{m^2}{r^2}[/tex]

Where

m is the mass of the electrons

[tex]m=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{G}} \\\\m=\sqrt{\dfrac{5.42\times 10^{-71}\times 1^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}}} \\\\m=9.01\times 10^{-31}\ kg[/tex]

So, the mass of the electron is [tex]9.01\times 10^{-31}\ kg[/tex].
