- Jupiters moon, lo, loses about 119.0 kg /s of sulfur dioxide to Jupiter's magnetosphere. At this rate, what percent if it's mass would lo lose in 3.0x109 years? Lo has a mass about 1x1023 kg and there are 3.15 x107 seconds in a yearMercury's solar day is longer than its solar year. (T/F)Venus can be as bright as apparent magnitude −4.7 when at a distance of about 1 AU. How many times fainter would Venus look from a distance of 7 pc? Assume Venus has the same illumination phase from your new vantage point. (Hints: Recall the inverse square law; also, review the definition of apparent visual magnitudes. Note: 1 pc = 2.1 ✕ 105 AU). [fill in the blank] times fainter What would its apparent magnitude be?
- Not including technology and instruments, give 2 reasons why our knowledge of the solar system has increased considerably in the past few years.A small cloud in Jupiter's equatorial region is observed to be at 120.80 ° west longitude in a coordinate system that rotates at the same rate as the deep interior of the planet. Another observation made exactly 9.50 Earth hours later finds the cloud at 119.60 ° west longitude. Jupiter's equatorial radius is 71,500 km. What is the observed equatorial wind speed in kilometers per hour?Please give the answer on units of solar masses, thank you
