The gravitational force between a satellite and Earth’s moon is 324 N. The mass of the moon is 7.3 × 1022 kg. If the distance from the moon to the satellite is 2.6 × 106 m, what is the mass of the satellite?

Respuesta :

Answer:

449.824 kg

Explanation:

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

Above equation can be used to find the gravitational force between two objects.

Here F is the Gravitational force. m₁ , m₂ are the masses of the objects and r is the distance between the objects. Let's take m₁ as the mass of the moon. Then m₂ is the mass of the satellite.

We are given that F = 324 N , m₁ = 7.3 * 10²²kg and r = 2.6 * 10 ⁶m.

              324  =  6.67×10⁻¹¹ × m₁ × 7.3×10²² / (2.6 × 10⁶)²

                  m₁ = 449.824 kg

Answer:

answer above is right just round its 450kg
