Answer:

a, 22 kg and 22 kg

b, 215.8 N and 440 N

Explanation:

a

The mass of the ball remains constant and unchanged irrespective of where it has been to, need to go or is going. So, basically the mass of the ball on earth is as the same mass of the ball on the said planet, 22 kg

b

The weight of any object factors in the acceleration due to gravity of the said area(or planet).

W = mg, with m being the mass and g being the acceleration due to gravity.

On earth

W = 22 * 9.81 = 215.8 N

On the said planet,

W = 22 * 20 = 440 N

Do therefore, the weight is 215.8 N on earth and 440 N on the planet

Two identical space probes are orbiting Jupiter. Scientists determine that one of the space probes has a larger gravitational fo
galina1969 [7]

If the probes are identical, then the one that feels a larger gravitational
force is orbiting closer to Jupiter than the other one is.

If they're not identical, then the one with greater mass will feel more
gravitational force than the one with less mass, even if they're both
the same distance from Jupiter.  (We know this from the experimental
observation that fatter people weigh more, even on Earth.)

Suppose a car travels at a constant speed of 12.0 m/s. How far would it move in 3600.0 s?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

43200 m

Explanation:

speed = 12.0 m/s

time = 3600.0 s

distance = speed * time

distance = 12.0 m/s * 3600.0 s

distance = 43200 m
