Answer:

0.0196 Joules

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is half the product of mass and velocity squared.

K.E=0.5 m*v^2; The m is the mass in kilograms and v is the velocity in meters per second.

We will convert grams to kilograms:

2.45 grams = 0.00245 kilograms.

Calculating kinetic energy:

mass:0.00245 kg

velocity:4 m/s

K.E = 0.5 *0.00245*4^2 = 0.0196 Joules.

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

10.55111 m/s²

Explanation:

M = Mass of Saturn = 95\times 5.972\times 10^{24}\ kg

r = Radius of Saturn = 9.4\times 6.371\times 10^6\ m

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

Acceleration due to gravity is given by

g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 95\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{(9.4\times 6.371\times 10^6)^2}\\\Rightarrow g=10.55111\ m/s^2

The acceleration due to gravity on Saturn is 10.55111 m/s²
