Calculate the magnitudes of the gravitational forces exerted on the Moon by the Sun and by the Eart when the two forces are in direct competition, that is, when the Sun, Moon and Eart are aligned with the Moon between the Sun and the Earth. This alignment...

I used G m1 m2/r^2 to get the forces, for the force between the Earth and the moon I did: ((6.67e-11)(5.97e24)(7.35e22))/(1.737e6 - 6.37e6)^2 and I got 1.36e24 For the force between the Sun and the Moon, I used the distance from earth to the sun and subst...
