The mass of Venus is $4.87\cdot 10^{24}kg$

Explanation:

The gravitational acceleration at the surface of a planet is given by:

$g=\frac{GM}{R^2}$

where:

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

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

For Venus, we know that:

$R=6.05\cdot 10^6 m$ is the radius of the planet

$g=8.87 m/s^2$ is the gravity at the surface

Solving the equation for M, we find Venus mass:

$M=\frac{gR^2}{G}=\frac{(8.87)(6.05\cdot 10^6)^2}{6.67\cdot 10^{-11}}=4.87\cdot 10^{24}kg$

cupoosta [38]

The diameter of the column of the water as it hits the bucket is 4.04 cm

The equation of continuity occurs in the fluid system and it asserts that the inflow and the outflow of the volume rate at the inlet and at the outlet of the system are equal.

By using the kinematics equation to determine the speed of the water in the bucket and applying the equation of continuity to estimate the diameter of the column, we have the following;

Using the kinematics equation:

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 = v_i^2 + 2gh}$

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 =(2.0)^2 + 2\times 9.8 \times 7.5}$

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 =151 m/s}$

$\mathbf{v_f =\sqrt{151 m/s}}$

$\mathbf{v_f =12.29 \ m/s}$

From the equation of continuity:

$\mathbf{A_iV_i = A_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{\pi r^2_iV_i = \pi r^2_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{ r^2_iV_i = r^2_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{ (\dfrac{10}{2})^2\times 2.0 = r_f^2 \times 12.29}$

$\mathbf{ 50 = 12.29 \times r_f^2}$

$\mathbf{ r_f= \sqrt{\dfrac{50}{12.29} }}$

$\mathbf{ V_f= 2.02 \ cm }$

Since diameter = 2r;

∴

The diameter of the column of the water is:

= 2(2.02) cm

= 4.04 cm

Which best explains how an object at rest deep in space and far from any massive body behaves compared to an object in free fall

7nadin3 [17]

Answer: They behave the same because, according to the principle of equivalence, the laws of physics work the same in all frames of reference.

Explanation:

According to the equivalence principle postulated by Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, acceleration in space and gravity on Earth have the same effects on objects.

To understand it better, regarding to the equivalence principle, Einstein formulated the following:

A gravitational force and an acceleration in the opposite direction are equivalent, both have indistinguishable effects. Because the laws of physics must be accomplished in all frames of reference.

Hence, according to general relativity, gravitational force and acceleration in the opposite direction (an object in free fall, for example) have the same effect. This makes sense if we deal with gravity not as a mysterious atractive force but as a geometric effect of matter on spacetime that causes its deformation.
