The radius of the moon is 1.7 xx 10^(6) ...

The radius of the moon is `1.7 xx 10^(6) m` and its mass is `7.4 xx 10^(22) kg`. If `G = 6.67 xx 10^(-11) Nm^(2) kg^(-2)`, find the value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the moon, we can use the formula: \[ g = \frac{GM}{R^2} \] Where: - \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity, - \( G \) is the universal gravitational constant, - \( M \) is the mass of the moon, ...
