Answer:

What would be the value of g on the surface of the earth if its mass was twice and its radius half of what it is now ? g2=8g1 Thus , the value of g on the surface of the earth would be eight times the present value.

Explanation:

What could be the value of g on the surface of Earth if its mass were twice as large, and the radius also twice what it is now?

G would be half of what it is now, since it is proportional to mass and inversely proportional to distance squared. Such a planet would be only a little more dense than water, quite similar to Neptune, but smaller.

See below for the answer to the (completely different) original question:

What would be the value of g on the surface of the earth if its mass was twice as large and its radius half of what it is now?

G would be eight times larger, since it is proportional to mass and inversely proportional to distance squared. [Thanks to Niels for pointing out an earlier mistake]

The Earth would need to be 16 times as dense, though, which is quite impossible. The density of rock is around 3 g/cm^3, of iron around 8 and the Earth overall (consisting mostly of those two materials, including compression) around 6. The densest known material is around 22 g/cm^3 (Osmium), which is only roughly 4 times as much. Even when you consider increased compression, no planet could possibly satisfy your conditions, even if it were made of pure Osmium.

Sonar is a technology that uses sound waves to calculate the distance to an object. Explain why you think sonar is useful for sc

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Sonar can be used to measure the depth of the seabed or the distance of any object, animal or a man-made vessel any other objects

Explanation:

A sound wave or sound pulse is projected into the water.

If any object tends to come in the way of the pulse, an echo is produced or the signal is reflected back.

A transducer measures the strength of this signal and hence determines the depth of the object or the sea.

This is much better way of measuring distances under the sea since light alone is not able to pierce through the ocean after a certain distance.

A powerful sonar blast can help in taking multiple measurements at a time, while even a laser will find it difficult to reach below 3 km of depth.

kap26 [50]

Answer: A barrier should be created to overcome the atmosphere of the Venus, while launching spacecraft to Venus.

Explanation:

The atmosphere of Venus consists of 96.5% carbon dioxide, other composition includes nitrogen and other gases in trace amounts. The large amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere can extinguish the missile of the launcher of spacecraft thus it will become difficult in launch of spacecraft to the Venus.
