Hi, I am new and I need your urgent help. I must return for this afternoon. 1° Determine the value of the weight on Jupiter of an object whose mass is m = 1200 g. 2) Determine the mass of an object whose weight on Jupiter is P = 15 N. 3) Recall what is the relationship between the weight P and the mass m of an object? Deduce the value of the intensity of gravity on Jupiter. (1 pt) 4) Calculate what is the weight on Jupiter of an object whose mass is 4 kg. 5) What is the value of the intensity of gravity on Earth? Is the intensity of gravity the strongest on Earth or on Jupiter? And how many times? (2 pts)

Answer»

The formula is: weight/mass = gravitational field strength. On EARTH the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg. Other planets have different gravitational field strengths. The Moon has a gravitational field strength of 1.6 N/kg.Explanation:There is no magic size or mass required for an object in order to have a 'satellite'. An 'orbit' occurs when the gravitational pull from a nearby object exactly matches the FORWARD MOTION or momentum of the ORBITING body. All objects (with mass) have gravity, however SMALL they are.
