Calculate the acceleration due to gravity at Earth due to the Moon. (b) Calculate the acceleration due to gravity at Earth due to the Sun.

a)  g’= 3.44 10⁻⁵ m / s²

b)  g ‘’ = 5.934 10⁻³ m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the law of universal gravitation

         F =

where m is the mass of the body under study, M the mass of the body that creates the force and r the distance between the bodies

         F =

the attractive force is called weight W = m g,

Thus

         g =

is called the acceleration of gravity

a) the acceleration created by the moon

       g' = G \frac{M}{r^2}

the mass of the moon is M = 7.36 10²² kg

the distance from the moon to the Earth's surface is

       r = D -R_e

       r = 3.84 10⁸ -6.37 10⁶

       r = 3.7763 10⁸ m

we calculate

     g’=

     g ’= 3.44 10⁻⁵ m / s²

b) the acceleration created by the sun

mass of the sun M = 1,9991 10³⁰ ka

the distance from the sun wears down the Earth's surface

        r = D -R_e

        r = 1.496 10¹¹ -6.37 10⁶

        r = 1.4959 10¹¹ m

let's calculate

       g ’’ =

       g ‘’ = 5.934 10⁻³ m / s²

im not to sure what it is

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
