An astronaut on a small planet wishes to measure the local value of g by timing pulses traveling down a wire which has a large o

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

$0.53m/s^2$

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of wire=m=3.6 g= $3.6\times 10^{-3} kg$

1 kg=1000 g

Length of wire=l=1.6 m

Mass of object=m'=3 kg

Time,t=60.1 ms= $60.1\times 10^{-3} s$

$1 ms=10^{-3} s$

Speed,v= $\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{1.6}{60.1\times 10^{-3}}=26.62 m/s$

$g=\frac{v^2m}{m'l}$

Using the formula

$g=\frac{(26.62)^2\times 3.6\times 10^{-3}}{3\times 1.6}=0.53m/s^2$
