on the surface of jupiter the acceleration due to gravity is about 3 times that on earth. how much would a 100kg rock weigh on j
madam [21]

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

Which of the following is true of changes in momentum?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: ⇒  Answer is 3

<h2>Explanation: momentum = mass × velocity</h2>

"A small force may produce a large change in momentum by acting on a very massive object".

THEY HAVEN'T GIVEN US THE TIME PERIOD NOR THE DISTANCE TRAVELED. THEREFORE WE CANNOT ACTUALLY DECIDE IF THE FORCE IS KEPT FOR A LONG TIME OR SHORT TIME. ANYWAYS SINCE THE MASS IS GIVEN AS MASSIVE , THE  MOMENTUM SHOULD BE DEFINITELY HIGH.

WHY I SAY OTHERS ARE WRONG:

1) For a small force to give a large change in momentum, it should act for a long time interval.

2) By applying a large force for a short time interval, the change of momentum should be large.

3) Correct answer.

4) Acting over a short distance can be the same as acting over a short period of time.Therefore the distance should be large in order for a larger momentum.

I HOPE IT HELPS!
