Answer: The correct answer is option (C).
Explanation:
As it is given in the problem, the path of a meteor passing Earth is affected by its gravitational force and falls to Earth's surface. Another meteor of the same mass falls to Jupiter's surface due to its gravitational force.
According to Newton's law of universal gravitational, every particle attracts every other particles in the universe with the gravitational force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
The Jupiter is the most massive planet in the solar system. It is also the largest planet in the solar system. The gravity of Jupiter on its surface is 2.4 times that of surface gravity of the Earth.
If a person weighs 100 pounds on the Earth then he would weigh 240 pounds on Jupiter.
Therefore, the correct answer is option (C), the meteor falls to Jupiter faster due to its greater gravitational force.
Heat flow occurs when two systems in contact are not at the same temperature.
What is heat flow?
- when two bodies of different temperatures are in contact, heat flow takes place.
- Heat flows till the two bodies in contact achieve equilibrium.
- To achieve equilibrium, heat flows from hotter bodies to colder bodies.
- There is no heat flow after achieving the state of equilibrium because the amount of heat flow from one body to the other is the same.
