What is the equal and opposite force required by Newton's Third Law of Motion?
If the moon orbits the earth because the earth exerts a gravitational force on the moon, what is the equal and opposite force required by Newton's Third Law of Motion?What is the equal and opposite force required by Newton's Third Law of Motion?Its simply the same force as the earth exerts on the moon. F=GMm/D^2. The force of gravity is equal to The gravitational constant(6.67x10^ -11) times rhe mass of earth times the mass of the moon. All of that is divided by the square of the distance between them. The force is equal for both the moon and the earth but the acceleration of each is different. A=f/mWhat is the equal and opposite force required by Newton's Third Law of Motion?The moon exerts an equal and opposite (in direction) gravitational force on the earth.muffler language translation
