(i) ANSWER :- ‘g/4’ .
EXPLANATION :-
✍️ Here,
- h = R
________________________________
(ii) ANSWER :- 200N .
EXPLANATION :-
✍️ Weight of the body on the surface of Earth = 450 N .
=> mg = 450N
=> m × 10m/s² = 450N
=> m = 45kg .
Now,
✔️ Mass of planet = 1/9 mass of Earth .
✔️ Radius of planet = 1/2 Radius of Earth
✍️ Value of gravity on earth is,
✍️ Value of gravity on planet is,
✍️ Now, weight on the planet is =
Answer:
i) The acceleration due to gravity at a height is given by
g'=g(1-2h/R)
=g(1-2R/R)
=g(1-2)
=-g = -9.8 m/s²
∴the acceleration due to gravity at height R is -9.8 m/s²
ii) the acceleration due to gravity is given by
g=GM/R² (where G is the gravitation constant, M is mass of earth)
In the question,
M'=M/9 -----(1)
R'=R/2 -----(2)
Subsituting these on the equation,
g'=G(M/9)/(R/2)²
=(4/9)GM/R²
g'=(4/9)g (∵g=GM/R²)
Weight on earth W=mg
450=m×10 (for simplicity, g=10 m/s²)
∴m=45 kg
∴Weight on the planet W'=mg
=45×40/9
=45×4.44
=199.8 kg wt
