Answer:

2940 N

Explanation:

Given at Jupiter acceleration due to gravity(g_j) is equal to 3 times of acceleration due to gravity on the Earth(g_e).

That is,

 g_j=3g_e

We know, g_e=9.8m/s^2

So,  g_j=3\times9.8=29.4m/s^2

Now the gravitational force on Jupiter (weight on Jupiter) is given as

W = mg_j

Here m = 100 kg is the mass and it remain same on both earth and Jupiter.

Substitute the given values, we get

W=100 kg\times 29.4m/s^2

W = 2940 N.

Thus, the weight of 100 kg rock on the Jupiter is 2940 N.

Answer:

Weight on Jupiter will be equal to 2940 N

Explanation:

We have given given acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 3 times of acceleration due to gravity on earth

Acceleration due to gravity on earth g=9.8m/sec^2

So acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter = g'=3\times 9.8=29.4m/sec^2

Mass is given m = 100 kg

We have to find the weight

Weight is equal to W = mg, here m is mass and a is acceleration

So weight W=100\times 29.4=2940N

What is the difference between work done by the gravitational force on descending and ascending objects?
Kazeer [188]
<span>The difference between work done by the gravitational force on descending and ascending objects is that for descending objects a terminal velocity will be reached where the object will not fall any faster that it already is. For an ascending object, its velocity will come down the longer gravity has an effect on it until the object begins to descend and the velocity of an ascending object will continue to change the longer gravity has an effect on it.</span>

A classroom has 24 fluorescent bulbs, each of which is 32 W. how much energy does it take to light the room for a minute?(unit=J
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Energy= 46.08KJ

Explanation:

Given that the power needed to light each bulb is 32W

We know that Power = \frac{energy}{time}

The energy needed to light one bulb=power*time

Given time = 1minute = 60 seconds

Energy = 32W*60sec=1920J

Therefore energy needed to light one bulb is 1920J

The energy needed to light 24 bulbs = 1920*24 =46080J=46.08KJ
