In projectile motion horizontal motion has zero acceleration and when there is no air resistance acting on the object the motion will be uniform. Motion in the vertical direction is accelerated downwards to to the acceleration due to gravity

If the mass of a planet is 0.231 mE and its radius is 0.528 rE, estimate the gravitational field g at the surface of the planet.
crimeas [40]

Answer:

8.1 m/s^2

Explanation:

The strength of the gravitational field at the surface of a planet is given by

g=\frac{GM}{R^2} (1)

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

For the Earth:

g_E = \frac{GM_E}{R_E^2}=9.8 m/s^2

For the unknown planet,

M_X = 0.231 M_E\\R_X = 0.528 R_E

Substituting into the eq.(1), we find the gravitational acceleration of planet X relative to that of the Earth:

g_X = \frac{GM_X}{R_X^2}=\frac{G(0.231M_E)}{(0.528R_E)^2}=\frac{0.231}{0.528^2}(\frac{GM_E}{R_E^2})=0.829 g_E

And substituting g = 9.8 m/s^2,

g_X = 0.829(9.8)=8.1 m/s^2

A certain 100W light bulb has an efficiency of 95%. How much thermal energy will this light bulb add to the inside of a room in
Usimov [2.4K]
Since the bulb consumes 100 watts of power and its efficiency is 95%,
it generates 95 watts of light energy and 5 watts of heat energy whenever
it's turned on.

5 watts means  5 joules of energy per second.

(2.5 hours) x (3,600 seconds/hour) =  9,000 seconds

(9,000 seconds) x (5 joules/second)  =  45,000 joules of heat in 2.5 hours
