Question

The moon (m = 7.36x10^22 kg) is bound to Earth (m = 5.98x10^24 kg) by gravity. If, instead, the force of attraction were the result of each having a charge of the same magnitude but opposite in sign, find the quantity of charge that would have to be placed on each to produce the required force.
