When the Moon is directly overhead at sunset, the force by Earth on the Moon FEM , is essentially at 90 to the force by the Sun on the Moon, FSM, as shown below. Given that FEM=1.981020N and FSM=4.361020N , all other forces on the Moon are negligible, and the mass of the Moon is 7.351022kg, determine the magnitude of the Moon’s acceleration.
