Answer:
a) The strength of gravity decreases if one moved away from Jupiter
b) The strength of gravity increases if one fell into Jupiter
Explanation:
The gravitational attraction is given by Newton law of gravitation as follows;
Where;
G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg·s²)
M = The mass of Jupiter
m = The mass of the nearby body
R = The distance between the centers of Jupiter and the body
From the equation, we have that the gravitational strength varies inversely with the square of the separation distance between two bodies
Therefore, as one moves away, R increases, and the strength of gravity reduces
Similarly as the body falls into Jupiter, R, reduces the gravitational strength increases.
Answer:
t = 23.255 s, x = 2298.98 m, v_y = - 227.90 m / s
Explanation:
After reading your extensive writing, we are going to solve the approach.
The initial speed of the plane is 250 miles / h and it is at an altitude of 2650 m; In general, planes fly horizontally for launch, therefore this is the initial horizontal speed.
As there is a mixture of units in different systems we are going to reduce everything to the SI system.
v₀ₓ = 250 miles h (1609.34 m / 1 mile) (1 h / 3600 s) = 111.76 m / s
y₀ = 2650 m
Let's set a reference system with the x-axis parallel to the ground, the y-axis is vertical. As time is a scalar it is the same for vertical and horizontal movement
Y axis
y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²
the initial vertical velocity when the cargo is dropped is zero and when it reaches the floor the height is zero
0 = y₀ + 0 - ½ g t²
t =
t = √(2 2650/ 9.8)
t = 23.255 s
Therefore, for the cargo to reach the desired point, it must be launched from a distance of
x = v₀ₓ t
x = 111.76 23.255
x = 2298.98 m
at the point and arrival the speed is
vₓ = v₀ₓ = 111.76
vertical speed is
v_y = v_{oy} - gt
v_y = 0 - gt
v_y = - 9.8 23.25 555
v_y = - 227.90 m / s
the negative sign indicates that the speed is down
in the attachment we have a diagram of the movement
