An object of mass 0.50 kg is transported to the surface of Planet X where the object's weight is measured to be 20 N. The radius

of the planet is 4.0 ´ 106 m. What free fall accerleration will the 0.5 kg object experience when at the surface of Planet X. What is the mass of Planet X? (G = 6.67 ´ 10-11 N × m2/kg2)

Explanation:

The free fall acceleration is:

F = ma

20 N = (0.50 kg) a

a = 40 m/s²

The mass of Planet X is:

F = GMm / r²

20 N = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²) M (0.50 kg) / (4.0×10⁶ m)²

M = 9.6×10²⁴ kg

You kick a soccer ball of mass 0.41 kg. the ball leaves your foot with an initial speed of 23 m/s. (a what is the magnitude of t
svetoff [14.1K]
Impulse describes the change of momentum. Since we don't know the momentum of the soccer ball before the hit, this question is hard to answer. If you assume the momentum of the ball before the hit was p = 0, then the change in momentum is just Δp = Impulse = mv.
