Question

Help!!

Answer 1

If Fg=mg=ma and, Fg(planetX)=1/5Fg(earth)

then the time would be 5x of the time as gravity is acceleration. So 3.9s*5=19.5s

As the force of gravity is less, then the acceleration of masses is also less, therefore it will take more time for the object to fall by the factor of the force of gravity difference

Answer 2

D= 1/2 g T^2

T = √(2D/g)

If g changes to g/5, then T increases by the factor √5 .

If it was originally 3.9 sec, then the new T is 8.72 sec.
