Answer:

g=0.20\ m/s^2    

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the asteroid Ceres, m=6.797\times 10^{20}\ kg

Radius of the asteroid, r=472.9\ km=472.9\times 10^3\ m

The value of universal gravitational constant, G=6.67259\times 10^{-11}\ N.m^2/kg^2

We know that the expression for the acceleration due to gravity is given by :

g=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}

g=\dfrac{6.67259\times 10^{-11}\times 6.797\times 10^{20}}{(472.9\times 10^3)^2}

g=0.20\ m/s^2

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity on that planet is 0.20\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Remember to identify all your data, write the equation, and show your work.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

I believe it's 8.09 seconds, but I'm rusty on my physics.

Explanation:

The equation for solving the time it takes for an object to fall is \sqrt{2d/g}

So multiply the distance times 2, and you get 642 meters. Then you divide by gravities acceleration constant, 9.8, and you get 65.51. Finally, \sqrt{65.51}, and you get 8.09 seconds.

I pulled the equation off of wikipedia and I'm unsure if it's the correct one, so hopefully this is correct. :/

Wil-E-Coyote drops a bowling ball off a cliff to try to catch the Roadrunner. The cliff is
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

t = 5.19 s

Explanation:

We have,

Height of the cliff is 132 m

It is required to find the time taken by the ball to fall to the ground. Let t is the time taken. So, using equation of kinematics as :

y=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\\text{since}\ u=0\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2y}{g}}\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 132}{9.8}}\\\\t=5.19\ s

So, it will take 5.19 seconds to fall to the ground.
