The European Space Agency launched a probe called Rosetta in March 2004. In August 2014, Rosetta reached its destination: a co
met called 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Rosetta is the first spacecraft to rendezvous with a comet. It contained a lander craft, called Philae.The Philae has a launch mass on the Earth of 220pounds-mass [lbm].If the Philae was deployed to Mars instead of Comet 67P, what would the weight of the lander be after landing on the

Complete Question
The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image
Answer:
The of the lander would be 75.66 pounds
Explanation:
From the question we are given that the
Weight of the Philae on Earth is = 220 pound-mass
gravity of Mars is = 3.71 m/
Weight of the Philae on Mars is = ?
Now Mass is quantity of matter in an object so it is always constant for a particular object
Generally Weight = Mass × Gravity :
Hence
Weight of the Philae on Mars is =

Given:
Glass with µr = 1, εr = 5, and σ = 10−12 S/m at 10 GHz
Animal tissue with µr = 1, εr = 12, and σ = 0.3 S/m at 100 MHz.
Wood with µr = 1, εr = 3, and σ = 10−4 S/m at 1 kHz
Find:
Determine if the material is a low-loss dielectric, a quasi-conductor, or a good conductor, and then calculate α, β, λ, up, and ηc:
Solution:
- We need to determine the loss tangent to determine category of the medium as follows:
σ / w*εr*εo
Where, w is the angular speed of wave
εo is the permittivity of free space = 10^-9 / 36*pi
- Now we classify as follows:
- For σ / w*εr*εo < 0.01 --- Low-Loss dielectric and σ / w*εr*εo > 100 --- Good conducting material.
Glass: Low-Loss dielectric
Tissue: Quasi-Conductor
Wood: Good conductor
- Now we will use categorized material base equations from Table 17-1 as follows:
Glass: Low-Loss dielectric
α = (σ / 2)*sqrt(u / εr*εo) = (10^-12 / 2)*sqrt( 4*pi*10^-7/5*8.85*10^-12)
α = 8.42*10^-11 Np/m
β = w*sqrt (u*εr*εo) = 2pi*10^10*sqrt (4*pi*10^-7*5*8.85*10^-12)
β = 468.3 rad/m
λ = 2*pi / β = 2*pi / 468.3
λ = 1.34 cm
up = λ*f = 0.0134*10^10
up = 1.34*10^8 m/s
ηc = sqrt ( u / εr*εo ) = sqrt( 4*pi*10^-7/12*8.85*10^-12)
ηc = 168.5 Ω
Tissue: Quasi-Conductor
α = (σ / 2)*sqrt(u / εr*εo) = (0.3 / 2)*sqrt( 4*pi*10^-7/12*8.85*10^-12)
α = 9.75 Np/m
β = w*sqrt (u*εr*εo) = 2pi*100*10^6*sqrt (4*pi*10^-7*12*8.85*10^-12)
β = 12.16 rad/m
λ = 2*pi / β = 2*pi / 12.16
λ = 51.69 cm
up = λ*f = 0.5169*100*10^6
up = 0.52*10^8 m/s
ηc = sqrt ( u / εr*εo )*( 1 - j (σ / w*εr*εo))^-0.5
ηc = sqrt (4*pi*10^-7*12*8.85*10^-12)*( 1 - j 4.5)^-0.5
ηc = 39.54 + j 31.72 Ω
Wood: Good conductor
α = sqrt (pi*f*σ u) = sqrt( pi* 10^3 *4*pi* 10^-7 * 10^-4 )
β = α = 6.3*10^-4 Np/m
λ = 2*pi / β = 2*pi / 6.3*10^-4
λ = 10 km
up = λ*f = 10,000*1*10^3
up = 0.1*10^8 m/s
ηc = α*( 1 + j ) / б = 6.3*10^-4*( 1 + j ) / 10^-4
ηc = 6.28*( 1 + j )
