1. The Moon and Earth are bound together by gravity. If, instead, the force of attraction were the result of each having a charge of the same magnitude but opposite in sign, find the quantity of charge that would have to be placed on each to produce the required force.
2. Fe = ke |q1||q2|/r^2
3. 9.81 = ke |x||-x|/r^2
solving for x, I ended up getting -.64766
Not sure if I understand the problem correctly or not. Please help steer in the right direction. Thanks
