Answer:

(a) 24.8 m/src^2

Explanation:

acceleration due to gravity is given by g=\frac{GM}{R^2}=9.8 m/sec^2

where G is gravitational constant M is mass of earth and R is radius of earth

it is given that mass of Jupiter is =318 M

and radius of earth =11.2 R

g_{jupiter}=\frac{318GM}{11.2^2\times R^2}=2.535\times 9.8=24.84375 m/sec^2

so the acceleration due to gravity at Jupiter is 24.8 m/sec^2 so option a will be correct answer

How did the language of Quechua spread throughout the Andes?
Georgia [21]
We can immediately reject option D - while Spanish is an Indo-European language, Quechua is an indigenous language of the Americas. 

The Spanish conquerors did not care much about the indigenous population - except if they could covert them, which would make them be seen as defenders of the Christian faith and win them favours with the Pope. 

So they would not teach the indigenous population in secular schools, they would however, try to teach them religion. The correct answer is A - The Catholic clergy believed that Christianity would be adopted faster if translated into an indigenous language.

What is the relationship between the density and position of each earth layer?
kipiarov [429]
The atmosphere and Earth's interior are layered by density. Gravity pulls more strongly on denser materials so denser materials are at the center of things. Earth's core, at its center, is denser than its crust.
