The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Jupiter is about 2.5 times the acceleration due to gravity on Earth’s surface.

What would be the weight of a space probe on the surface of Jupiter?
a.2.5 times lighter than on EarthB.6.25 times heavier than on EarthC.2.5 times heavier than on EarthD.6.25 times lighter than on Earth

C would be your answer because we can tell by using the equation for finding force so taking m*a lets pretend I weighed 10 kg on earth and earth's acceleration is roughly 10 m/s^2 so well use that, that means I would have a force on earth of 100N and if the acceleration is increased 2.5 times I would then have a force of 250N on Jupiter which roughly translates to weight of 25 kg on earth making C the answer

You charge an initially uncharged 65.7-mf capacitor through a 39.1-Ï resistor by means of a 9.00-v battery having negligible int
uysha [10]
In a RC-circuit, with the capacitor initially uncharged,  when we connect the battery to the circuit the charge on the capacitor starts to increase following the law:
Q(t) = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})
where t is the time, Q_0 = CV is the maximum charge on the capacitor at voltage V, and \tau = RC is the time constant of the circuit.
Using this law, we can answer all the three questions of the problem.

1) Using R=39.1 \Omega and C= 65.7 mF=65.7\cdot 10^{-3}F, the time constant of the circuit is:
\tau = RC=(39.1 \Omega)(65.7 \cdot 10^{-3}F)=2.57 s

2) To find the charge on the capacitor at time t=1.95 \tau, we must find before the maximum charge on the capacitor, which is
Q_0 = CV=(65.7 \cdot 10^{-3}F)(9 V)=0.59 C
And then, the charge at time t=1.95 \tau is equal to
Q(1.95 \tau) = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})=(0.59 C)(1-e^{-1.95})=0.51 C

3) After a long time (let's say much larger than the time constant of the circuit), the capacitor will be fully charged, this means its charge will be Q_0 = 0.59 C. We can see this also from the previous formule, by using t=\infty:
Q(t) = Q_0 (1-e^{-\infty})=Q_0(1-0) = 0.59 C

What type of eclipse is shown? How do you know?
Sonja [21]
That is a lunar eclipse. At night, when the Earth is between the Sun and the moon, the moon would appear to be red. Just for future reference, a solar eclipse is when the Moon is between the Sun and Earth. Speaking of which, check out the solar eclipse this August!
