To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the conservation of momentum.
This definition can be expressed as
Where
= Mass of each object
= Initial Velocity of each object
= Final velocity
Rearranging the equation to find the final velocity we have,
Our values are given as
Replacing we have,
Therefore the final velocity is 6.5m/s
Answer:
a) The strength of gravity decreases if one moved away from Jupiter
b) The strength of gravity increases if one fell into Jupiter
Explanation:
The gravitational attraction is given by Newton law of gravitation as follows;
Where;
G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg·s²)
M = The mass of Jupiter
m = The mass of the nearby body
R = The distance between the centers of Jupiter and the body
From the equation, we have that the gravitational strength varies inversely with the square of the separation distance between two bodies
Therefore, as one moves away, R increases, and the strength of gravity reduces
Similarly as the body falls into Jupiter, R, reduces the gravitational strength increases.
