A planet has a mass of 5.97 x 1024 kg and a radius of 6.38 x 106 m. Find the weight of a 65.0 kg person at 1000 km above the sur

mote1985 [20]

<u>Answer:</u> The weight of the person above the surface of a planet is 635.83N.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the weight of a person, we use the formula:

$w=mg$ ....(1)

where,

w = weight of an object

m = mass of the person = 65kg

g = acceleration due to the gravity of the planet

For the calculation of weight, we need to first find the acceleration due to gravity and for that we use the formula:

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

where, g = acceleration due to gravity = $?m/s^2$

G = Universal gravitational constant = $6.67\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2$

M = mass of the planet = $5.97\times 10^{24}kg$

r = distance of the person from the planet = $6.38\times 10^6m$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$g=\frac{(6.67\times 10^{-11}kgm/s^2.m^2/kg^2)(5.97\times 10^{24}kg)}{(6.38\times 10^6m)^2}\\\\g=9.782m/s^2$

Putting this value in equation 1, we get:

$w=65kg\times 9.782m/s^2=635.83N$

Hence, the weight of the person above the surface of a planet is 635.83N.

What is glucuronidation in the liver function.

AnnZ [28]

Glucuronidation, a conjugation reaction, is thought to protect the liver by both reducing hepatic BA toxicity and increasing their urinary elimination. The present study evaluates the contribution of each process in the overall BA detoxification by glucuronidation.

svp [43]

Answer:

Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
