Question 582155: According to Newton's universal gravitation, the attractive force F between two bodies is given by
F=G%28%28m1%2Am2%29%2F%28r%5E2%29%29
where m1 and m2 are the mass of the two bodies, r is the distance between the two bodies, and G is the gravitational constant = 6.672+%2A+10%5E-11 newtons meter squared kilogram squared.
Suppose an object is traveling directly from Earth to the moon. The mass of Earth is 5.9742+%2A+10%5E24 kilograms, the mass of the moon is 7.349%2A10%5E22 kilograms, and the mean distance from Earth to the moon is 384000 kilometers. For an object between Earth and the moon, how far from Earth is the force on the object due to the moon greater than the force on the object due to Earth?
