Answer:

Neutral atoms of an element contain an equal number of protons and electrons. The number of protons determines an element's atomic number (Z) and distinguishes one element from another. For example, carbon's atomic number (Z) is 6 because it has 6 protons.

which planet should punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given

Harrizon [31]

The planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>The given parameters:</h3>

Weight of Punch on Earth = 236 lb
Desired weight = 118 lb

The mass of Punch will be constant in every planet;

$W = mg\\\\m = \frac{W}{g}\\\\m = \frac{236}{g}$

The acceleration due to gravity of each planet with respect to Earth is calculated by using the following relationship;

$F = mg = \frac{GmM}{R^2} \\\\g = \frac{GM}{R^2}$

where;

M is the mass of Earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg
R is the Radius of Earth = 6,371 km

For Planet Tehar;

$g_T =\frac{G \times 2.1M}{(0.8R)^2} \\\\g_T = 3.28(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_T = 3.28 g$

For planet Loput:

$g_L =\frac{G \times 5.6M}{(1.7R)^2} \\\\g_L = 1.94(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_L = 1.94g$

For planet Cremury:

$g_C =\frac{G \times 0.36M}{(0.3R)^2} \\\\g_C = 4(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_C = 4 g$

For Planet Suven:

$g_s =\frac{G \times 12M}{(2.8R)^2} \\\\g_s = 1.53(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_s = 1.53 g$

For Planet Pentune;

$g_P =\frac{G \times 8.3 }{(4.1R)^2} \\\\g_P = 0.5(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_P = 0.5 g$

For Planet Rams;

$g_R =\frac{G \times 9.3M}{(4R)^2} \\\\g_R = 0.58(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_R = 0.58 g$

The weight Punch on Each Planet at a constant mass is calculated as follows;

$W = mg\\\\W_T = mg_T\\\\W_T = \frac{236}{g} \times 3.28g = 774.08 \ lb\\\\W_L = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.94g =457.84 \ lb\\\\ W_C = \frac{236}{g}\times 4g = 944 \ lb \\\\ W_S = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.53g = 361.08 \ lb\\\\W_P = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.5 g = 118 \ lb\\\\W_R = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.58 g = 136.88 \ lb$

Thus, the planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

The complete question is below:

Which planet should Punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? Refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given to determine your answer.

Punch Taut is a down-on-his-luck heavyweight boxer. One day, he steps on the bathroom scale and "weighs in" at 236 lb. Unhappy with his recent bouts, Punch decides to go to a different planet where he would weigh in at 118 lb so that he can compete with the bantamweights who are not allowed to exceed 118 lb. His plan is to travel to Xobing, a newly discovered star with a planetary system. Here is a table listing the planets in that system (find the image attached).

In the table, the mass and the radius of each planet are given in terms of the corresponding properties of the earth. For instance, Tehar has a mass equal to 2.1 earth masses and a radius equal to 0.80 earth radii.

The temperature inside my refrigerator is about 4 degrees C. If I place a balloon in my fridge that initially has a temperature

maksim [4K]

Convert the given temperatures from celsius to kelvin since we are dealing with gas.

To convert to kelvin, add 273.15 to the temperature in celsius.

T1 = 22 + 273.15 = 295.15 k

T2 = 4 + 273.15 = 277.15 k

V1 = 0.5 L

Let's find the final volume (V2).

To solve for V2 apply Charles Law formula below:

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

Rainfall occurs on the earth due to effect of gravity

Anna [14]

Answer:

Because Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects, and Earth's gravity pulls matter downward, toward its center. It pulls precipitation down from clouds and pulls water downhill. Gravity also moves air and ocean water. ... Gravity pulls denser air and water downward, forcing less dense air and water to move upward.
