If you stood on a planet with four times the mass of Earth, and twice Earth's radius, how much would you weigh?

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1/4 times your earth's weight

Explanation:

assuming the Mass of earth = M

Radius of earth = R

∴ the mass of the planet= 4M

the radius of the planet = 4R

gravitational force of earth is given as = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

where G is the gravitational constant

Gravitational force of the planet = $\frac{G4M}{(4R)^{2} }$

= $\frac{G4M}{16R^{2} }$

= $\frac{GM}{4R^{2} }$

recall, gravitational force of earth is given as = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

∴Gravitational force of planet = 1/4 times the gravitational force of the earth

you would weigh 1/4 times your earth's weight

Suppose that you hear a clap of thunder 16 s after seeing the associated lightning strike. How far are you from the lightning st

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

$d=5.376km$

Explanation:

Since light is so fast we can assume no time passes between the lightning strikes and we observe it. We want to know then how far away did the strike occur for the sound to take 16s to reach our ears. Since the definition of velocity tells us that $v=d/t$ , we can write $d=vt=(336m/s)(16s)=5376m=5.376km$

Five basket ball teams are playing in a tournament. The teams will play with each other only one time. How many games will be pl

77julia77 [94]

Ten games will be played.

The first team can be any one of 5 . For each of those, the opponent can be any one of the other 4 .

Number of ways to pair them up = (5 x 4) = 20 ways .

BUT ... Whether the Reds play the Blues, or the Blues play the Reds, it's the SAME GAME. Each possible game shows up twice in the list of 20 ways. So there are really only 10 different pairs ==> 10 games .
