On the earth, when an astronaut throws a 0.250-kg stone vertically upward, it returns to his hand a time T later. On planet X he

finds that, under the same circumstances, the stone returns to his hand in 2T. In both cases, he throws the stone with the same initial velocity and it feels negligible air resistance. The acceleration due to gravity on planet X (in terms of g) is _______.a) g/. b) g/4. c) 2g. d) g/2. e) g.

Answer:

correct is d) a ’= g / 2

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the kinematics equations

On earth

      v = v₀ - a t

     a = (v₀- v) / T

On planet X

    v = v₀ - a' t’

    a ’= (v₀-v) / 2T

Let's substitute the land values ​​in plot X

     a’= a / 2

Now let's use Newton's second law

       W = ma

      m g = m a

      a = g

We substitute

      a ’= g / 2

So we see that on planet X the acceleration is half the acceleration of Earth's gravity

Approximately 0.4373 seconds

Speed of sound at 20 degree C is roughly 343 meters/second

Speed of light = 3x10^8 or 300,000,000 meters/second

at 150.0 feet away you set it up as:

150.0/343 - 150/3x10^8

150.0/343 = 0.43731778

150/3x10^8 = 5x10^-7 or 0.0000005

Subtract 0.43731778 - 0.0000005

Answer is 0.43731728

Rounding would be approx. 0.4373
