Each of the following diagrams shows a spaceship somewhere along the way between Earth and the Moon (not to scale); the midpoint

of the distance is marked to make it easier to see how the locations compare. Assume the spaceship has the same mass throughout the trip (that is, it is not burning any fuel). Rank the five positions of the spaceship from left to right based on the strength of the gravitational force that Earth exerts on the spaceship, from strongest to weakest.Diagram:spaceships were shown in the diagrams
