<u>We are given:</u>
Mass of Neptune = 1.03 * 10²⁶ kg
Distance from the center of Neptune (r) = 2.27 * 10⁷
now, computing the value of the acceleration due to gravity (g)
<u>Finding g:</u>
We know the formula:
g = G(mass of planet) / (r)²
g = [6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ * 1.03*10²⁶] / (2.27*10⁷) [since G is 6.67*10⁻¹¹]
g = (6.87 * 10¹⁵) / (5.15 * 10¹⁴)
which can be rewritten as:
g = (6.87 * 10¹⁵ * 10⁻¹⁴) / 5.15
g = (6.87 * 10¹⁵⁻¹⁴) / 5.15
g = (6.87/5.15) * 10
g = 1.34 * 10
g = 13.4 m/s² <em>(approx)</em>
B. The gravity acceleration is in the same direction as the force of gravity, and thus towards the centre of the earth
1 newton / square metre =0.0001 newton / square centimetre
Formula = divide the pressure value by 10000
Answer:
w = 2w₀ the angular velocity of man doubles
Explanation:
In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia
I= I₀ / 2
Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved
L₀ = L
I₀ w₀ = I w
I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w
w = 2w₀
therefore the angular velocity of man doubles
