The mass of the planet Gallifrey is 8 times the mass of the Earth.

  • let the gravitational field of Earth = g
  • let the radius of the Earth = R
  • gravitational field of Gallifrey = 2g
  • radius of Gallifrey = 2R

<h3>What is gravitational potential energy?</h3>
  • This is the work done in moving an object to a certain distance against gravitational field.

The gravitational field strength of the Earth is given as follows;

g = \frac{GM}{r^2} \\\\G = \frac{gr^2}{M}

The gravitational field strength of the Planet Gallifrey is calculated as follows;

g_2 = \frac{GM_2}{r_2^2}

G = \frac{g_2r_2^2}{M_2} \\\\\frac{g_2r_2^2}{M_2} = \frac{gr^2}{M}\\\\M_2gr^2 = Mg_2r_2^2\\\\M_2 = \frac{Mg_2r_2^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = \frac{M \times 2g \times (2r)^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = \frac{M \times 2g \times 4r^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = 8M

Thus, the mass of the planet Gallifrey is 8 times the mass of the Earth.

Differentiate between center of mass and center of gravity
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Centre of mass is the point at which the distribution of mass is equal in all directions, and does not depend on gravitational field. Centre of gravity is the point at which the distribution of weight is equal in all directions, and does depend on gravitational field.
