Your spaceship lands on an unknown planet. To determine the characteristics of this planet, you drop a wrench from 7.00 mm above the ground and measure that it hits the ground 0.812 ss later. Part A. What is the acceleration of gravity near the surface of this planet? Express your answer in meters per second squared to three significant figures. Part B. Assuming that the planet has the same density as that of earth (5500 kg/m3kg/m3), what is the radius...
A planet has a gravitational acceleration on its surface of 0.5 times Earth's gravitational acceleration on its surface. The planet's radius is two times Earth's radius. What is the mass of the planet, in terms of Earth masses, ME? Hint: Write equations for the gravitational acceleration on the surface of the planet and on Earth's surface in terms of their respective masses and radii. Then write the relationships between Earth's and the planet's gravitational accelerations, and between the Earth's and...
Imagine that a 16,000 kg spaceship is landing on an alien planet with a gravitational acceleration of 6.7 m/s^2. It fires its landing rockets to generate an upward acceleration of 1.3 m/s^2. If the propellant leaves the rocket engine at a speed of 36,500 m/s. At what rate must the rocket burn through its fuel? here, mass of spaceship , m = 16000 kg gravitational acceleration , g = 6.7 m/s^2 a = 1.3 m/s^2 the rate at which the...

An object of mass 0.50 kg is transported to the surface of Planet X where the object's weight is measured to be 20 N. The radius of the planet is 4.0 ´ 106 m. What free fall accerleration will the 0.5 kg object experience when at the surface of Planet X. What is the mass of Planet X? (G = 6.67 ´ 10-11 N × m2/kg2)
Learning Goal: To understand Newton's law of gravitation and the distinction between inertial and gravitational masses. In this problem, you will practice using Newton's law of gravitation. According to that law, the magnitude of the gravitational force Fg between two small particles of masses m1 and m2 separated by a distance r, is given by m1m2 T2 where G is the universal gravitational constant, whose numerical value (in SI units) is 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2 kg2 This formula applies not...
