The question: assuming that the moon circles the Earth in an orbit of radius d show thatthe periodic time T of the moon may be expressed as: T=2pi d sqrt d/r sqrt g where r is the radius of Earth and g is acceleration due to gravity on Earth's surface
i took up physics 2 to 3 months ago on my own and I am definately missing something here
its eay to get Tsqrd=4pi Rcubed/GM but iv only readas faras chapter 12 and i can't think how to figure this out
can get T=2pi r sqrtr/sqrt GMbut not much more
