Homework Statement
The question is: What is the distance between the moon and the Earth if the mass of the moon is 7.34 x 10(to the power of 22) kg and the force of attraction between the two is 2.00 x 10(to the power of 20) N?
Mass of the moon = 7.34 x 10(to the power of 22) kg
Attraction = 2.00 x 10(to the power of 20) N
Gravitional constant = -6.67 x 10(to the power of -11) N.m(squared)/kg(squared)
Mass of the Earth = ?
Distance between Earth and moon = ?
