Answer:

18 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant

m = Mass of planet = \rho V

\rho = Density of planet

V = Volume of planet assuming it is a sphere = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3

r = Radius of planet

Acceleration due to gravity on a planet is given by

g=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho V}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{4G\rho\pi r}{3}

So,

g\propto \rho r

Density of other planet = \rho_p=\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e

Radius of other planet = r_p=\dfrac{1}{3}r_e

\dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\rho_p r_p}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e\times \dfrac{1}{3}r_e}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=12\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{g_e}{12}\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{9.8}{12}

Since the person is jumping up the acceleration due to gravity will be negative.

From kinematic equations we have

v^2-u^2=2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=v^2-2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=0-2\times -9.8\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow u^2=2\times 9.8\times 1.5

On the other planet

v^2-u^2=2g_ps\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2g_p}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0-(2\times 9.8\times 1.5)}{2\times -\dfrac{9.8}{12}}\\\Rightarrow s=18\ \text{m}

The man can jump a height of 18 m on the other planet.

What type of change accurs when a substance stays the same
Thepotemich [5.8K]
This would be a physical change because it can change back to its original form. This is like ripping paper. You can piece it back together and it still is paper.

The opposite of this is chemical change. Chemical change means the product has been changed completely like burning paper. The paper has now been turned to ash and it's impossible to change this back to its original form.

irga5000 [103]
1. What is the major function of the pons? 
         -Other than serving as a conduction pathway, the pons also contains a nucleus that is essential for breathing.
2.  Why is the medulla the most vital part of the brain?       
         -Medulla is very important because it function for the involuntary movement and processes that happen in the body without giving a thought about it. It performs crucial tasks like regulating the blood pressure.

The current in a lamp is 0.5 ampere when it is plugged into a standard wall outlet. What is the resistance of the lamp when it i
lidiya [134]

The resistance of the lamp plugged in to a standard wall outlet with a current of 0.5 amps is 240 Ω (ohms)

Explanation:

In the United States Of America the standard voltage is 120 v and their frequency is 60 Hz

Standard wall outlet voltage is 120 V

The current in the lamp is 0.5 ampere

Resistance (R) = V/ I

      = 120/0.5

      = 240Ω (ohms)

Thus the resistance of the lamp plugged in to a standard wall outlet with a current of 0.5 amps is 240 Ω (ohms).
