A scientist is studying two moons orbiting a distant planet. The moons are observed to have the same linear velocity and orbital radius. From observations, it is determined that moon A has mass ma : 7.35 × 1022 kg and moon B has mass 13.2 x 1022 kg. If the magnitude of the || gravitational force exerted on moon A is 4.31 × 1020 N, what must be the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted on moon B? You may neglect the mutual gravity of the moons.

A scientist is studying two moons orbiting a
distant planet. The moons are observed to have
the same linear velocity and orbital radius. From
observations, it is determined that moon A has
mass ma
= 7.35 × 10²2 kg and moon B has mass
