To solve this problem we will apply the Newtonian concept of gravitational acceleration produced by a planet. This relationship is given by:
Where,
G = Gravitational Universal Constant
M = Mass of Earth
r = Radius
The values given are based on the constants of the earth, so they can be expressed as
The relationship of gravity would then be given:
The relationship with the new planet, from the gravity of the earth would be given
The relationship with the weight of the earth would be given as:
Therefore the weigh on this planet would be 96N
Answer:
Explanation:
The potential energy of an object is given by .
Recall that the weight of an object is equal to the force of gravity on the object. From this, we can set up the following equation and solve for the mass of the object:
Now we can plug in values to and solve:
.
Answer:
Range, R = 5090.1 meters
Explanation:
It is given that,
Velocity of cannon, v = 240 m/s
A cannon is shot at a 30 degree angle above the horizontal. The range of this shot is given by the formula as follows :
g = acceleration due to gravity
R = 5090.1 meters
So, the range of this shot is 5090.1 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
A region around a charged particle or object within which a force would be exerted on other charged particles or objects
