The table below gives the masses of the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. Name Mass (kg)
Earth 5.97×1024
Moon 7.35×1022
Sun 1.99×1030
G is the universal gravitational constant, whose numerical value (in SI units) is 6.67×10^(−11)N⋅m2kg2.
The average distance between the Earth and the Moon is 3.84×10^8m . The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is 1.50×10^11m . Use this information to answer the following questions.
1. Find the net gravitational force Fnet acting on the Earth in the Sun-Earth-Moon system during the new moon (when the moon is located directly between the Earth and the Sun).
Express your answer in newtons to three significant figures.
2.Find the net gravitational force Fnet acting on the Earth in the Sun-Earth-Moon system during the full moon (when the Earth is located directly between the moon and the sun).
Express your answer in newtons to three significant figures.

Beryl states that insulation with the smallest possible thermal conductivity is best to keep a house warm in winter, but worst for keeping a house cool in summer. sapphire insists the reverse is true: low thermal conductivity is good in the summer, but bad in the winter. which one, if either is correct? a. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in low heat transfer. b. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. d. sapphire, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. e. neither, because low heat transfer is desirable both in summer and in winter.
