If a planet has the same mass as the earth, but has twice the radius, how does the surface gravity, g, compare to g on the surfa

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The surface gravity g of the planet is 1/4 of the surface gravity on earth.

Explanation:

Surface gravity is given by the following formula:

$g=G\frac{m}{r^{2}}$

So the gravity of both the earth and the planet is written in terms of their own radius, so we get:

$g_{E}=G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}$

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{r_{P}^{2}}$

The problem tells us the radius of the planet is twice that of the radius on earth, so:

$r_{P}=2r_{E}$

If we substituted that into the gravity of the planet equation we would end up with the following formula:

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{(2r_{E})^{2}}$

Which yields:

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}$

So we can now compare the two gravities:

$\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}}{G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}}$

When simplifying the ratio we end up with:

$\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{1}{4}$

So the gravity acceleration on the surface of the planet is 1/4 of that on the surface of Earth.

If vx=9.80 units and vy=-6.40 units, determine the magnitude and direction of v

dexar [7]

The resultant vector can be determined by the component vectors. The component vectors are vector lying along the x and y-axes. The equation for the resultant vector, v is:

v = √(vx² + vy²)
v = √[(9.80)² + (-6.40)²]
v = √137 or 11.7 units
