Question:
Using Newton's law universal gravitation to find the mass of the earth. He wants me to use the numbers below.
g=11.89 m/s^2
R=~6378000 m
G=6.67*10^(-11)
mass of earth = g*R^2/G
Answer___________?
where g is the gravitational acceleration obtained by you in Procedure 5. (R is the radius of the earth which can be found from Google easily (~6378000 m), and G=6.67*10^(-11))
