We will use the formula p = mgh p is potential energy. m is mass of object in kg g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s²) h is height of the objects displacement in meters. p = mgh → mgh = p → h = p / mg p is 14000j, m is 40kg and g is 9.8 m/s² h = 14000 / 40 × 9.8 → h = 1400 / 392 → h = 35.7 Therefore , the cannonball was 35.7 meters high .

The planet Krypton has a mass of 7.6 × 1023 kg and radius of 1.7 × 106 m. What is the acceleration of an object in free fall nea
olga55 [171]

Answer:

17.55 m/s²

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of Krypton, M = 7.6 * 10^23 kg

Radius, R = 1.7 * 10^6 m

Gravitational constant, G = 6.6726 * 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²

Acceleration due to gravity of planet of mass M is given as:

g = GM/R²

Since the object is close to the surface of Krypton, we can say that the distance from the Centre of Krypton is the radius of the planet Krypton.

Therefore,

g = (6.6726 * 10^(-11) * 7.6 * 10^23)/(1.7 * 10^6)²

g = 17.55 m/s²
