which planet should punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given

Harrizon [31]

The planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>The given parameters:</h3>

Weight of Punch on Earth = 236 lb
Desired weight = 118 lb

The mass of Punch will be constant in every planet;

$W = mg\\\\m = \frac{W}{g}\\\\m = \frac{236}{g}$

The acceleration due to gravity of each planet with respect to Earth is calculated by using the following relationship;

$F = mg = \frac{GmM}{R^2} \\\\g = \frac{GM}{R^2}$

where;

M is the mass of Earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg
R is the Radius of Earth = 6,371 km

For Planet Tehar;

$g_T =\frac{G \times 2.1M}{(0.8R)^2} \\\\g_T = 3.28(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_T = 3.28 g$

For planet Loput:

$g_L =\frac{G \times 5.6M}{(1.7R)^2} \\\\g_L = 1.94(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_L = 1.94g$

For planet Cremury:

$g_C =\frac{G \times 0.36M}{(0.3R)^2} \\\\g_C = 4(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_C = 4 g$

For Planet Suven:

$g_s =\frac{G \times 12M}{(2.8R)^2} \\\\g_s = 1.53(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_s = 1.53 g$

For Planet Pentune;

$g_P =\frac{G \times 8.3 }{(4.1R)^2} \\\\g_P = 0.5(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_P = 0.5 g$

For Planet Rams;

$g_R =\frac{G \times 9.3M}{(4R)^2} \\\\g_R = 0.58(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_R = 0.58 g$

The weight Punch on Each Planet at a constant mass is calculated as follows;

$W = mg\\\\W_T = mg_T\\\\W_T = \frac{236}{g} \times 3.28g = 774.08 \ lb\\\\W_L = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.94g =457.84 \ lb\\\\ W_C = \frac{236}{g}\times 4g = 944 \ lb \\\\ W_S = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.53g = 361.08 \ lb\\\\W_P = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.5 g = 118 \ lb\\\\W_R = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.58 g = 136.88 \ lb$

Thus, the planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

<u>The </u><u>complete question</u><u> is below</u>:

Which planet should Punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? Refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given to determine your answer.

Punch Taut is a down-on-his-luck heavyweight boxer. One day, he steps on the bathroom scale and "weighs in" at 236 lb. Unhappy with his recent bouts, Punch decides to go to a different planet where he would weigh in at 118 lb so that he can compete with the bantamweights who are not allowed to exceed 118 lb. His plan is to travel to Xobing, a newly discovered star with a planetary system. Here is a table listing the planets in that system (<em>find the image attached</em>).

<em>In the table, the mass and the radius of each planet are given in terms of the corresponding properties of the earth. For instance, Tehar has a mass equal to 2.1 earth masses and a radius equal to 0.80 earth radii.</em>

A parallel-plate capacitor has area A and plate separation d, and it is charged to voltage V. Use the formulas from the problem

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

U = (ε0AV^2) / 2d

Explanation:

Where C= capacitance of the capacitor

ε0= permittivity of free space

A= cross sectional area of plates

d= distance between the plates

V= potential difference

First, the capacitance of a capacitor is obtained by:

C = ε0A/d.

Starting at the formula , U= (CV^2)/2. Formula for energy stored in a capacitor

Substitute in for C:

U = (ε0A/d) * V^2 / 2

Hence:

U = (ε0AV^2) / 2d
