The mass of a planet is about 94 % of the mass of Jupiter with the same radius. What is the approximate average density of the planet in g/cm3? The mass of Jupiter is 2 × 10^27 kg and Jupiter's radius is 75000.0 km.

Neglecting the mass of the first satellite of Jupiter, calculate the mass of that planet in terms of Earth's mass using only the following: The radius of Earth: 3,900 mi Earth's gravitational acceleration: 32.2 ft/s^2 Period f the first satellite: 1 d, 18 h, 28 min Mean distance of the first satellite from Jupiter's center: 267,000 mi
“Europa” is a moon of Jupiter; it orbits the planet with a radius of 670, 900 km, its mass is 4.8 x 1022 kg and its diameter is 1,560 km. Jupiter’s mass is 1.898 x 1027 kg and its radius is 69,911 km. What is the orbital period T of Europa? What is the orbital speed of Europa? What is Europa’s surface gravity? If Jupiter becomes a black hole, what would be the planet’s radius? And what would be the...
The mass of the planet Jupiter is 1.9 x 1027 kg, and its radius is 6.99 x 107 m. Calculate its density in kg/m3.
1a) What is the gravitational field strength on the planet Jupiter? Given it's mass is 1.90 x 1027 kg and it's equatorial radius is 7.15x107 m. 1b) What is the gravitational field strength on the planet Mercury? Given it's mass is 3.30 x 1023 kg and it's equatorial radius is 2.44x106 m.
The Earth has a radius of about 6,350 km and a mass of 5.98e24 kg. Show the calculations of what would be the radius of Earth (in m or km) if its density were roughly the same as that of the atomic nucleus (given in page 15 of the book as 2.3X1014 g/cm3)
The free-fall acceleration on the surface of Jupiter, the most massive planet, is 24.79 m/s^2. Jupiter's radius is 7.0
You are a planetary scientist studying the atmosphere of Jupiter through a large telescope when you observe an asteroid approaching the planet. This asteroid is large, so you know it is held together by gravity rather than the cohesive forces that hold a large rock together. If the asteroid gets too close to Jupiter, the massive tidal forces will tear it apart, scattering small particles that will add to the ring system. You have calculated the closest distance the asteroid...
A comet is deflected by the planet Jupiter into an orbit that puts it on a collision course with Earth. When the comet is 2.00 x 10km from Earth, it is headed directly toward Earth with a speed of 30.0 km/s. What will be the speed of the comet just before it hits Earth's atmosphere at a distance of 6.40 x 10 km from the center of the Earth? The mass of Earth is 5.97 x 10 kg. (a) 31.9...
please explain the answer 4) The escape velocity on the surface of a planet is given by 2GM R where G = 6.67 x 10-11m2 kg-1 3-2 is Newton's gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet, and R is the radius of the planet. The escape velocity is the velocity you have to thrown an object so that it does not come back down (better hit the gym!). Write v in terms of average mass density p. Recall...
Planet A with mass Ma = 1.90 times 10^27 kg and radius R.t = 71.5 times10^6 m is located at the origin of a coordinate system. A rocket with mass m_r = 2.02 times 10^6 kg is shot up from the surface of planet A along the y axis with initial velocity v = 30.00 km/s What is the maximum height h the rocket reaches above the surface of planet A? What is the acceleration vector a (vector notation) of...
