the weight of the space probe on that planet is 50 N

To calculate the weight of the space probe, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • W = mg

Where:

  • W = weight of the space probe on the planet
  • m = mass of the space probe
  • g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 25 kg
  • a = 2 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • W = 25(2)
  • W = 50 N.

Hence, the weight of the space probe on that planet is 50 N

An object is moving to the west at a constant speed. three forces are exerted on the object. one force is 10 n directed due nort
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
If we want the object to continue to move at constant speed, it means that the resultant of the forces acting on the object must be zero. So far, we have:
- force F1 with direction north, of 10 N
- force F2 with direction west, of 10 N
The third force must balance them, in order to have a net force of zero on the object.

The resultant of the two forces F1 and F2 is
F_{12} =  \sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2}= \sqrt{(10 N)^2+(10 N)^2}= \sqrt{200}=14.1 N
with direction at 45^{\circ} north-west. This means that F3 must be equal and opposite to this force: so, F3 must have magnitude 14.1 N and its direction should be 45^{\circ} south-east.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

It is frequently stated that the value of the acceleration due to gravity at the pole is larger than at the equator because the poles are closer to the center of the earth due to the earth's oblateness. ... The measured value is larger because the earth's density is not uniform but increases toward the center.
