Why would a person who weights 100 lbs. on earth weight significantly More on Jupiter?

The correct answer would be A

Because Jupiter's radius balloons to roughly 11 times as large as Earth's, its gravitational force drops off by a factor of 1/112 at its surface (assuming you could find a way to stand on gas clouds).

Hope this helps!!

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 12.0 m/s. (<br> a. How high does it rise?

sdas [7]

It rises till all of its Kinetic energy is converted into potential energy.

so, mgh=(1/2)m(v^2)

so, h=(v^2)/2g = 12*12/(2*9.81)=7.34 m

Answer:

1.114 kg/m³

Explanation:

The total mass of the air in the balloon and the balloon + cargo will be the mass of the displaced air. If d is the density of the air in the balloon, then we have ...

2910d +308 = 2910×1.22

Solving for d, we find ...

2910d = 2919(1.22) -308

d = 1.22 -308/2910

d ≈ 1.114 . . . kg/m³

The density of the hot air is about 1.114 kg/m³.

A child on a high dive has a mass of 40 kilograms. If the high dive is 10 meters in the air, what is the potential energy? GPE=m

saw5 [17]

Answer:

Ep = 3924 [J]

Explanation:

To calculate this value we must use the definition of potential energy which tells us that it is the product of mass by the acceleration of gravity by height.

$E_{p}=m*g*h\\$

where:

Ep = potential energy [J] (units of Joules)

m = mass = 40 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 10 [m]

$E_{p} =40*9.81*10\\E_{p} = 3924 [J]$
