Answer : <em>Her weight is lower on Venus because the acceleration due to gravity is lower.</em>

Explanation :

Venus is also called as Earth's twin. This is because both the mass and the size of Earth and Venus are almost same. The acceleration due to gravity on earth is $9.8\ m/s^2$ while on Venus is $8.87\ m/s^2$ .

So, when Shari measure her weight on Venus she found her weight is lower on Venus. This is because the acceleration due to gravity is lower on the surface of Venus as compared to the Earth.

Since, $w=mg$

i.e. weight depends on g.

<em>So, correct prediction is (b)</em>

In 2000, NASA placed a satellite in orbit around an asteroid. Consider a spherical asteroid with a mass of 1.40×1016 kg and a ra

Arturiano [62]

A) 8.11 m/s

For a satellite orbiting around an asteroid, the centripetal force is provided by the gravitational attraction between the satellite and the asteroid:

$m\frac{v^2}{(R+h)}=\frac{GMm}{(R+h)^2}$

where

m is the satellite's mass

v is the speed

R is the radius of the asteroide

h is the altitude of the satellite

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the asteroid

Solving the equation for v, we find

$v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

where:

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$

$M=1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg$

$R=8.20 km=8200 m$

$h=6.00 km = 6000 m$

Substituting into the formula,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg)}{8200 m+6000 m}}=8.11 m/s$

B) 11.47 m/s

The escape speed of an object from the surface of a planet/asteroid is given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

where:

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$

$M=1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg$

$R=8.20 km=8200 m$

$h=6.00 km = 6000 m$

Substituting into the formula, we find:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg)}{8200 m+6000 m}}=11.47 m/s$

Mkey [24]

This is a question on conservation of energy. That is,
mgh + KE1 = KE2
mgh +1/2mv1^2 = 1/2mv2^2
gh + 1/2v1^2 = 1/2v2^2

Where, h = 0.2 m, v1 =3.04 m/s
Therefore,
v2 = Sqrt [2(gh+1/2v1^2)] = Sqrt [2(9.81*0.2 + 1/2*3.04^2)] = 7.26 m/s

Now, Volumetric flow rate, V/time, t = Surface area, A*velocity, v
Where,
V = Av = πD^2/4*3.04 = π*(2.51/100)^2*1/4*3.04 = 1.504*10^-3 m^3/s

At 0.2 m below,
V = 1.504*10^-3 m^3/s = A*7.26
A = (1.504*10^-3)/7.26 = 2.072*10^-4 m^2

But, A = πr^2
Then,
r = Sqrt (A/π) = Sqrt (2.072*10^-4/π) = 0.121*10^-3 m
Diameter = 2r = 0.0162 m = 1.62 cm
