Calculate the acceleration due to gravity on Venus. The radius of Venus is about 6.06 x 10^6 m and its mass is 4.88 x 10^24 kg.
Answer should be in m/s^2.
And to those of you who have emailed me about not picking a best answer in a timely manner, I apologize but I must wait three hours before I do. I do not live on the computer and sometimes I am forgetful. If you would liked to be picked for best answer and I have forgotten to choose one in a timely manner, email me. I check email more frequently than yahoo. Thanks.

Hey Jess, How goes it?
g = MG/r^2
g = 4.88x10^24 * 6.6742 x 10^-11 / (6.06 x 10^6)^2
g = 8.87 m/s^2

No. "If all the planets have been to align completely with absolutely everyone as close as possible to the Earth, their gravity could improve the sea tides via only one twenty-5th of one millimeter."
