(1) You must find the point of equilibrium between the two forces,
<span>G * <span><span><span>MT</span><span>ms / </span></span><span>(R−x)^2 </span></span>= G * <span><span><span>ML</span><span>ms / </span></span><span>x^2
MT / (R-x)^2 = ML / x^2
So,
x = R * sqrt(ML * MT) - ML / (MT - ML)
R = is the distance between Earth and Moon.
</span></span></span>The result should be,
x = 3.83 * 10^7m
from the center of the Moon, and
R - x = 3.46*10^8 m
from the center of the Earth.
(2) As the distance from the center of the Earth is the number we found before,
d = R - x = 3.46*10^8m
The acceleration at this point is
g = G * MT / d^2
g = 3.33*10^-3 m/s^2

Answer:
In the lab activity, I used a virtual watershed to demonstrate how pollutants enter and flow through the watershed. I constructed food chains to show how biotic factors are related. I also predicted and modeled how human activity affected the biotic factors in an ecosystem. Based on my observations, I can conclude that biotic and abiotic factors are closely linked and that human activity that changes the environment, like pollution, can affect all the other parts of an ecosystem in a negative way.
