Answer:

W = 24.01 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of Jupiter = 300 x

radius = 11 x

weight of 1 Kg on Jupiter = ?

using equation of acceleration of gravity

 g =\dfrac{GM}{r^2}

mass of Jupiter = 300 M

radius of the Jupiter = 11 R

now, acceleration due to gravity

 g' =\dfrac{G(300M)}{(11R)^2}

 g' =\dfrac{300}{121}\dfrac{GM}{R^2}

 g' =2.45 g

acceleration due to gravity of Jupiter

 g' = 24.01 m/s²

Weight of the rock  in Jupiter

W = m g'

W = 1 x 24.01

W = 24.01 N

Marina86 [1]
When adding a solute to the solvent, the solution will then boil at a point much higher than the solvent itself. Therefore, it would take much longer for the solution to boil. Among the choices, the correct answer would be B. The water will boil at a higher temperature.

B. Newton's First Law, I'm pretty sure. The first states that an object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest until an outside force is applied, and that seems pretty relevant.

What describes a sound wave as it travels through a medium
Softa [21]
Sound waves in air (and any fluid medium) are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves.

If the distance d (in meters) traveled by an object in time t (in seconds) is given by the formula d = A + Bt^2, the SI units of
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The SI units of the “A” is m (meters)

The SI units of the “B” is m/s^2

Explanation:

Given the distance = d meters.

Time taken to travel = t (seconds)

Function of the distance, d = A + Bt^2

Now we have given the above information and from the given distance function, we have to find the SI units of the A and B. Here, below are the SI units.

Thus, the SI units of the “A” is = m (meters)

The SI units of the “B” is = m/s^2
