The mean diameters of Mars and Earth are 6.9 ✕ 103 km and 1.3 ✕ 104 km, respectively. The mass of Mars is 0.11 times Earth's mas

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

(a) Ratio of mean density is 0.735

(b) Value of g on mars 0.920 $m,/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given radius of mars $R_{mars}=6.9\times 10^3km=6.9\times 10^6m$ and radius of earth $R_{E}=1.3\times 10^4km=1.3\times 10^7m$

Mass of earth $M_E=5.972\times 10^{24}kg$

So mass of mars $M_m=5.972\times\times 0.11 \times 10^{24}=0.657\times 10^{24}kg$

Volume of mars $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (6.9\times 10^6)^3=1375.357\times 10^{18}m^3$

So density of mars $d_{mars}=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{0.657\times 10^{24}}{1375.357\times 10^{18}}=477.69kg/m^3$

Volume of earth $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times (1.3\times 10^7)^3=9.198\times 10^{21}m^3$

So density of earth $d_{E}=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{5.972\times 10^{24}}{9.198\times 10^{21}}=649.271kg/m^3$

(A) So the ratio of mean density $\frac{d_{mars}}{d_E}=\frac{477.69}{649.27}=0.735$

(B) Value of g on mars

g is given by $g=\frac{GM}{R^2}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times0.657\times 10^{24}}{(6.9\times 10^6)^2}=0.920m/sec^2$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 0.657\times 10^{24}}{6.9\times 10^6}}=3.563\times 10^4m/sec$

a 75-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (300 meters above ground). what is the potential energy of the

mart [117]

Here, you can calculate it's potential energy with respect to ground.
We know, U = mgh
Here, m = 75 Kg
g = 9.8 m/s² [ constant value for earth system ]
h = 300 m

Substitute their values into the expression:
U = 75 × 9.8 × 300
U = 220500 J

In short, Your Final Answer would be 220,500 J

Hope this helps!
