If you're calculating the power of an athlete who is lifting weights,
or the power of a windmill that is pumping water from a well, or
the power of two horses turning millstones, then those electrical
units won't help at all.

But if you happen to be calculating the power delivered to an
electrical circuit or dissipated by an electrical device, then you
can use ...

(voltage) times (current)
or
(voltage)² divided by (resistance)
or
(current)² times (resistance) .

The choice just depends on which quantities you know
or can easily measure.

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Mars is about one-third the acceleration due to gravity on Earthâ€™s surface.

aksik [14]

Answer:

one-third of its weight on Earth's surface

Explanation:

Weight of an object is = W = m*g

Gravity on Earth = g₁ = 9.8 m/s

Gravity on Mars = g₂ = $\frac{1}{3}$ g₁

Weight of probe on earth = w₁ = m * g₁

Weight of probe on Mars = w₂ = m * g₂ -------- ( 1 )

As g₂ = g₁/3 --------- ( 2 )

Put equation (2) in equation (1)

Weight of probe on Mars = w₂ = m * g₁ /3

Weight of probe on Mars = $\frac{1}{3}$ m * g₁ = $\frac{1}{3}$ w₁

⇒Weight of probe on Mars = $\frac{1}{3}$ Weight of probe on earth
