Question

A rocket travels from the Earth to the Moon. Calculate the distance of the rocket from the
Earths where it is under zero gravitational force. Consider only the gravitational attraction of the
Earth and Moon. (Mass of Earth = 6.0 x 1024 kg, mass of Moon = 7.4 x 1022 kg, distance of Moon
from the Earth = 3.8 x 108 m​

Answer 1

Answer:Taking the distance of moon from Earth as 3.80 × 108 m

F= G Mm/r²

F= (6.67×10-¹¹) × (5.96×10²⁴) × (7.36×10²²) /

(3.80×108)²

= 2×10²0 N
