If you were to triple the size of the Earth (R = 3R⊕) and double the mass of the Earth (M = 2M⊕), how much would it change the g
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Decreased by a factor of 4.5

Explanation:

"We have Newton formula for attraction force between 2 objects with mass and a distance between them:

F_G = G\frac{M_1M_2}{R^2}

where G =6.67408 × 10^{-11} m^3/kgs^2 is the gravitational constant on Earth. M_1, M_2 are the masses of the object and Earth itself. and R distance between, or the Earth radius.

So when R is tripled and mass is doubled, we have the following ratio of the new gravity over the old ones:

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{G\frac{M_1M_2}{R^2}}{G\frac{M_1m_2}{r^2}}

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{\frac{M_2}{R^2}}{\frac{m_2}{r^2}}

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{M_2}{R^2}\frac{r^2}{m_2}

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{M_2}{m_2}(\frac{r}{R})^2

Since M_2 = 2m_2 and r = R/3

\frac{F_G}{f_g} = \frac{2}{3^2} = 2/9 = 1/4.5

So gravity would have been decreased by a factor of 4.5

How much would a 70.0-kg person weigh on Mercury?
Natalija [7]

As weight =w =mg

g= gravitational acceleration on mercury = 3.7m/sec2

Mass of person =m= 70 kg

So w =(70kg)(3.7m/sec2)

w= 259 kgm/sec2

W= 259 N

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Given that a light bulb will glow when electrons flow through it. As the electron flow increases, the brightness increases as well. A student hooks up two circuits containing three light bulbs in each circuit. In one circuit the lights are connected in series and in the other circuit the lights are hooked up in parallel.

If you could only see the lights in the circuit and the wires were covered up, how could you tell the type of circuit?

The type of the circuit can be determined if you loose or unscrew one light bulb, all other bulbs will be switched of if connected in series. But if the others remain on it is a parallel circuit.
