Newton's Gravitational Forces
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
An object(mass=525kg) is 3.0x103 km above the Earth's surface. This object is falling toward the Earth because of the Earth's gravitational force on it. What is the rate of acceleration when it is at this distance? 2. Relevant equations Mass of Earth=5.98x1024 Radius of Earth=6.37x106 Fg=Gm1m2/r2 g=Gm/r2 3. The attempt at a solution Thank you for your help! 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution |
