Uranus (m=8.68*1.^25 kg) and its moon Miranda (m=6.59*10^19 kg) exert a gravitational force of 2.28*10^19 N on each other. How far apart are they?
Fg=G(m1m2/r^2)
G=6.67*10^-11
Put answer into scientific notation (Ex: _____ x 10^ _____)
You have everything you need to plug into the equation and solve for 'r' ..... {nl} 2.28x 10^19 = 6.67 x 10^(-11) x 8.68 x 10^25 x 6.59 x 10^19 / r^2
r^2 = 167.3385 x 10^14
r = 12.93593 x 10^7 m
r = 1.293593 x 10^8 m
r = 1.293593 x 10^5 KILOmeters
