A planet has mass 1/10 of that of earth, while
radius is 1/3 that of earth. If a person can throw
a stone on earth surface to a height of 90m, then
he will be able to throw the stone on that planet
to a height-
Answers
Answer
Given:
A planet has mass 1/10 of that of earth
Radius is 1/3 of that of earth
A person can throw a stone to a height of 90 m on earth
To Find:
To what height he will be able to throw the stone on that planet
Solution:
We know that,
Acceleration due to Gravity (g)
From this we can understand that,
Here,
G is a constant
G = 6.673×10⁻¹¹ N m² kg⁻²
Let us consider,
p = Planet
e = Earth
Therefore,
Given that,
By Substituting,
We get,
Given that,
A person can throw a stone to a height of 90 m on earth
Then,
Height (H)
From this we can understand that,
Therefore,
Given that,
And. We found out that,
Therefore,
By Substituting,
We get,
Hence,
He will be able to throw the stone to a height 100 m in that planet
Explanation:
g constant on earth that is g= GM/R
g constant on planet that is g ^1=3GM/10R
relation between then g^1= 3g/10
Now energy remains constant
Hence, mg×90= m×3g×h/100
we get h=300m.
