The specific gravity of honey is 1.45. A cylindrical container of honey 10 feet [ft] deep is inside a dome pressurized to a surface pressure of 0.06 atmospheres [atm] on the surface of Pluto. The total pressure at the bottom of the container is 66 millimeters of mercury [mm Hg]. What is the gravitational acceleration of Pluto, in units of meters per second squared m/s? Click the icon to view the conversion table. Click the icon to view density of water. .. .. The gravitational acceleration of Pluto is m/s. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
A spacecraft in the shape of a long cylinder has a length of 100 m, and its mass with occupants is 1 050 kg. It has strayed too close to a black hole having a mass 103 times that of the Sun. The nose of the spacecraft points toward the black hole, and the distance between the nose and the center of the black hole is 10.0 km. Black hole -100 m 10.0 km (a) Determine the total force on the spacecraft. A black hole can be treated in the same manner as any other point mass and used in the equation for the gravitational force as long as you are outside the Schwarzschild radius. N (b) What is the difference in the gravitational fields acting on the occupants in the nose of the ship and on those in the rear of the ship, farthest from the black hole? (This difference in acceleration grows rapidly as the ship approaches the black hole. It puts the body of the ship under extreme tension and eventually tears it apart.) N/kg
Imagine a particular exoplanet covered in an ocean of liquid ethane. At the surface of the ocean, the acceleration of gravity is 6.50 m/s2, and atmospheric pressure is 7.20 ✕ 104 Pa. The atmospheric temperature and pressure on this planet causes the density of the liquid ethane ocean to be 620 kg/m3.

A. Use the definition of the center of mass to determine the maximum “wobble” velocity of a star of mass M caused by a planet of mass m orbiting at a distance r from the star with a period T. B. Thanks to Kepler, we know that the mass, period, and distance of an orbiting object are actually related. Use Newton’s version of Kepler’s Third Law to determine the maximum “wobble” velocity in terms of M, m, and r.
A planet has been discovered orbiting the sun-like star HD 209458. From the period and velocity measured by the Doppler method, its mass was calculated to be 0.69 times that of Jupiter. The plane of the planet's orbit is edge-on and it has been observed to transit across the face of the star. The light from the star was seen to drop by 1.7% when the planet's disc lay fully within that of the star which has a radius of 8 × 10°km. Assuming that the brightness of the star is constant across the observed face, estimate the diameter of the planet and hence it density in comparison with that of Jupiter which has a radius of 7.1 × 10ʻkm. 3.
Suppose a lump of ionized matter orbits a black hole with a period of 5.70 ms and an orbital radius of 190 km. What is the mass of the black hole? The mass of the sun is M, 1.99 x 1030 kg. (Give your answer in terms of the solar mass.) s 0.0644
Nothing can escape the event horizon of a black hole, not even light. You can think of the event horizon as being the distance from a black hole at which the escape speed is the speed of light, 3.00 ×× 1088 m/sm/s, making all escape impossible. What is the radius of the event horizon for a black hole with a mass 7.5 times the mass of the sun? This distance is called the Schwarzschild radius.?

A non-rotating black hole has an ‘edge’ at what’s called it’s Schwartzschildradius. For a black hole of mass M, the Schwartzschild radius isRSch = 2GM/(c^2) where G is the gravitational constant and c is the speed of light. Close to black holes, we really should use Einstein’s theory of gravity (General Relativity) instead of Newton’s, but Newton’s is still a good approximation.Using Newtonian Gravity, find the gravitational force on a mass m at theSchwartzschild radius of a black hole. (Your answer for this should look likeFgrav = an expression in terms of G, M, m, c and numbers.) Is the forcesmaller or larger for a more massive black hole?
Jupiter's moon, Io, loses about 1190.0 kg/s of sulfur dioxide to Jupiter's magnetosphere. At this rate, what percent of its mass would Io lose in 3.0 × 109 years? Io has a mass of about 1 × 1023 kg and there are 3.15 × 107 seconds in a a year.
