Answer: a. 667N
b. 665N
c. 54.5N
Explanation:
a) on the surface of the earth
W = mg
W = 68 × 9.81
= 667N
b) at the top of Everest (8848 m above sea level).
W =mg × R²/(R + H)²
W = 667 × [6378²/(6378 + 8.848)²
W = 665N
c) has 2 1/2 times the radius of the earth
W = mg × R²/(R + H)²
W = 667 × R²/(R + 2.5R)²
W = 54.5N
We can't tell what RATING is printed on the package of bulbs, but right now, the bulb is dissipating IxE= 30 watts of heat and light.
