An astronaut working on the Moon tries to determine the gravitational constant G by throwing
a Moon rock of mass m with a velocity of v vertically into the sky. The astronaut knows that the
Moon has a density ρ of 3340 kg/m3 and a radius R of 1740 km.
(a) Show with (1) that the potential energy of the rock at height h above the surface is given by:
E = −4πG

(b) Next, show that the gravitational constant can be determined by:
G = 3
