Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

F = -G(m1m2)/r^2

where
F is the magnitude of the (repulsive) gravitational force between the two point masses
G is the gravitational constant (6.67 × 10^−11 N m2 kg−2)
m1 is the mass of the first point mass (5kg)
m2 is the mass of the second point mass (5.9736 * 10^24 kg)
r is the distance between the two point masses (Radius of Earth + height = 6.37101 * 10^6m + 1 * 10^7 m)

Note: You have to include the radius of earth, because gravity is held to originate from the center point.

Plug it in:

F = 6.67 × 10^−11 N m2 kg−2 * (5kg * 5.9736 * 10^24 kg) / (6.37101 * 10^6m + 1 * 10^7 m)^2

F = 6.67 × 10^−11 N m2 kg−2 * (2.9868 *10^25 kg^2) / (1.637101 * 10^7m)^2

F = 6.67 × 10^−11 N m2 kg−2 * (2.9868 *10^25 kg^2) / (2.6801 * 10^14 m^2)

F = 6.67 × 10^−11 N m2 kg−2 * 1.1144 * 10^11 kg^2/m^2

F = 6.67 × 10^−11 N m2 kg−2 * 1.1144 * 10^11 kg^2/m^2

F = 7.433048 N

use newton's universal gravitational law ( Gravitational force = GMm/(r^2), M and m are the masses of which the gravitational force acts on each other. )
