As, acceleration due to gravity = GM/R2
=> acceleration due to gravity on moon = 16GM'/R2
Thus, for M' = M/96
=> Thus, mass of moon = M/96
where, M = mass of Earth
The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon's surface is known to be about one-sixth the...
Suppose a satellite was orbiting the Earth just above the surface. What is its centripetal acceleration? Smaller thang Equal to 3 Larger than Impossible to say without knowing the mass A hypothetical planet has a mass of half that of the Earth and a radius of twice that of the Earth. What is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet in terms of the acceleration due to gravity at the Earth? The acceleration of gravity on the Moon is...
Acceleration due to gravity on the moon's surface is 1/6 th that on earth. If a football player weighs 300 lbs on earth, his weight on the moon will be: 300 lbs 50 lbs 1800 lbs 135 lbs
the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is about the sixth what it is on the Earth. If an object is thrown vertically upward on the Moon, how many times higher it will go than it would on Earth, assuming the same initial speed?
The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of a planet is nine times as large as it is on the surface of Earth. The mass density of the planet is known to be seven times that of Earth. What is the radius of this planet in terms of Earth's radius? RE Rplanet t
The mass of Venus is 81.5% that of the earth, and its radius is 94.9% that of the earth.(a) Compute the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Venus from these data. (Express your answer in terms of the acceleration due to gravity on theEarth.)__ gE(b) If a rock weighs 29.4 N on earth, what would it weigh at the surface of Venus?___ N
At the surface of the moon, the acceleration due to the gravity of the moon is a. What is the acceleration due to the gravity of the moon at a diatance fron the center of the moon equal to 4 times the radius of the moon?
Exercise 4.19- enhanced At the surface of Jupiter's moon lo, the acceleration due to gravity is 181 m/s A watermelon has a weight of 450 N at the surface of the earth. In this problem, use 9 80 Im/s? for the acceleration due to gravity on earth What is its mass on the earth's surface? kg Request Answer Part B What is its mass on the surface of l07 kg Part C What is its weight on the surface of...
a. compute the acceleration due to gravity of a moon which is 5/6 the radius of the earth and twice as massive as the earth? b. how high above the moon would you ha e to go to have an acceleration due to gravity equal to earth?
1. What is the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Moon? (Moon’s mass is 7.34767309 × 1022 kg, its average radius 1737.5 km. Note that [km] is not SI unit and needs to be converted to meters.) G = 6.674×10−11 N·kg–2·m2.
At the surface of Jupiter's moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is 1.81 m/s2. Part A) If a piece of ice weighs 42.0 N at the surface of the earth, what is its mass on the earth's surface? M = (value) Kg? Part B) What is the mass of this piece of ice on the surface of Io? MIo= (value) Kg? Part C) What is the weight of this piece of ice on the surface of Io? WIo= (value)...
