Answer:

686 N, 1617 N

Explanation:

Gravity on earth, ge = 9.8 m/s^2

Gravity on Jupiter, gj = 23.1 m/s^2

m = 70 kg

Weight on earth, We = m x ge = 70 x 9.8 = 686 N

Weight on Jupiter, Wj = m x gj = 70 x 23.1 = 1617 N

NISA [10]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. Here we will use the conservation between the potential gravitational energy and the kinetic energy to determine the velocity of this escape. The gravitational potential energy can be expressed as,

PE= \frac{GMm}{d}

The kinetic energy can be written as,

KE= \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where,

G = 6.67*10^{-11}m^3/kg\cdot s^2Gravitational Universal Constant

m = 5.972*10^{24}kg Mass of Earth

h = 56*10^6m  Height

r = 6.378*10^6m Radius of Earth

From the conservation of energy:

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{GMm}{d}

Rearranging to find the velocity,

v = \sqrt{\frac{2Gm}{d}} \rightarrow  Escape velocity at a certain height from the earth

If the height of the satellite from the earth is h, then the total distance would be the radius of the earth and the eight,

d = r+h

v = \sqrt{\frac{2Gm}{r+h}}

Replacing the values we have that

v = \frac{2(6.67*10^{-11})(5.972*10^{24})}{6.378*10^6+56*10^6}

v = 3.6km/s

Therefore the escape velocity is 3.6km/s

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Time = t = 6.62 s

Explanation:

Given data:

Height = h = 215 m

Initial velocity = v_{i} = 0 m/s

gravitational acceleration = g = 9.8 m/s²

Time = t = ?

According to second equation of motion

                            h = v_{i}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

As initial velocity is zero, So the first term of right hand side of above equation equal to zero.

                                 h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

                                        t² = \frac{2h}{g}

                                         t =\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

                                         t = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(215) }{9.8} }

                                         t = 6.62 s
