Question Determine the escape velocity of a body from the moon. Take the moon to be a uniform sphere of radius 1.76 x 10^6 m and mass 7.36 x 1o^22 kg. (G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2).(g =1.62ms?)
Two objects of equal mass are located at 1.0m and 2.0m above the surface of the Earth. Explain why we can treat the gravitational force on these objects as being equal, even though they are different distances from the center of the Earth.
4. Four masses are located in the corners of a square. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the gravitational field at the center of the square. Given: m1 = 85 kg, m2 = 3 kg, m3 = 3 kg, m4 = 85 kg, r = 8 m. G = 6.674 x 10-11 N•m2/kg2.

7.) A sateltle orbits at a height of 6,000 km above the earth’s surface. REarth = 6.38 × 106 m, mEarth = 5.98 × 1024 kg. What is the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration g at this height, in m/s2? Use G = 6.67 × 10-11 N·m2/kg2. Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
