C. 0.37V. A capacitor of 650x10⁻⁴F that stores 24x10⁻³C has a potential difference of 0.37V between its plates.
The key to solve this problem is using the capacitance equation C = Q/Vᵃᵇ, where C is the capacitance, Q the charge stored in the plates, and Vᵃᵇ the potential difference between the plates.
A 650x10⁻⁴F capacitor stores 24x10⁻³C, clear Vᵃᵇ for the equation:
C = Q/Vᵃᵇ -----------> Vᵃᵇ = Q/C
Solving
Vᵃᵇ = 24x10⁻³C/650x10⁻⁴F = 0.37V

Here's the part you need to know:
(Weight of anything) =
(the thing's mass)
times
(acceleration of gravity in the place where the thing is) .
Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .
That's always true everywhere.
You should memorize it.
For the astronaut on Saturn . . .
Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .
Weight = (68 kg) x (10.44 m/s²)
= 709.92 newtons .
__________________________________
On Earth, gravity is only 9.8 m/s².
So as long as the astronaut is on Earth, his weight is only
(68 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
= 666.4 newtons .
Notice that his mass is his mass ... it doesn't change
no matter where he goes.
But his weight changes in different places, because
it depends on the gravity in each place.
