(Ch 13 HW
Exercise 13.16 - Enhanced - with Feedback
Jupiter's moon lo has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the
solar system) that eject material as high as 500 km (or even higher) above the surface. lo
has a mass of 8.93 × 1022 kg and a radius of 1821 km
Part A
How high would this material go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on lo? (RE = 6370 km, mg = 5.96 × 1024 kg)
