3 0
We know, weight = mass * gravity 
10 = m * 9.8
m = 10/9.8 = 1.02 Kg

Now, Let, the gravity of that planet = g'
g' = m/r²   [m,r = mass & radius of that planet ]
g' = M/10 / (1/2R)²   [M, R = mass & radius of Earth ]
g' = 4M / 10R²
g' = 2/5 * M/R²
g' = 2/5 * g   
g' = 2/5 * 9.8
g' = 3.92

Weight on that planet = planet's gravity * mass
W' = 3.92 * 1.02
W' = 4 N

In short, Your Answer would be 4 Newtons

Hope this helps!

Which data set has the smallest standard deviation?
777dan777 [17]
The answer would be B.
<span>
Standard deviation basically measures how spread out the values are. Without solving, you can easily tell which one among your choices have a smaller deviation. The closer the values are to each other the smaller the standard deviation. The values of choice B are the closest together, so you can assume that they have the smallest standard deviation. </span>

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the vertical height by which it descends be h . Let it acquire velocity of v .

1/2 mv² = mgh

v² = 2gh

As it leaves the surface of sphere , reaction force of surface  R = 0 , so

centripetal force = mg cosθ where θ is the angular displacement from the vertex .  

mv² / r = mg cosθ

(m/r )x 2gh = mg cosθ

2h / r = cosθ

cosθ = (r-h) / r

2h / r =  r-h / r

2h = r-h

3h = r

h = r / 3
