d) The force on an object with mass m at a certain distance r from another object of mass m2 is given by Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation F, = G*m,*m/r?. Therefore we can calculate the ratio of the Force of gravity on the space station to that of the surface of the Earth as Fastation/Fgearth. Festation/Fgearth= (G*mstation *mearth/r'station-earth)/ (G*mtation *mearth/r?surtace-earth) Festation/Fgearth= (r'surface-earth)/(r³station-earth) Calculate the ratio Fgstation/Fg.earth using the distances you found in parts band c. Answer here.

alreday did b and c i just want the last question
Transcribed Image Text:d) The force on an object with mass m at a certain distance r from another object of mass m2 is
given by Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation F, = G*m,*m/r?. Therefore we can calculate the
ratio of the Force of gravity on the space station to that of the surface of the Earth as
Fastation/Fgearth.
Festation/Fgearth= (G*mstation *mearth/r'station-earth)/ (G*mstation *merth/r?surtace -earth)
Festation/Fgearth= (r'surface-earth)/(r³station-earth)
Calculate the ratio Fg.station/Fg.earth using the distances you found in parts b and c. Answer here.
Transcribed Image Text:Distance from earth to the space station is 6378 km
Distance from earth center to the earth surface is 6798 km
