Textbook Question
Chapter 22, Problem 5P
Calculate the mass of Callisto using a value for its density of 1.8 g/cm3. Convert your answer to units of kg, and compare to the mass of Ganymede given in Problem 5. (Notes: Density is mass divided by volume, and the volume of a sphere is
4. What is the escape velocity from the surface of Ganymede? Ganymede’s mass is 1.5 × 1023 kg and its radius is 2.6 × 103 km. (Hint: Use the formula for escape velocity, Eq. 5-1b. The formula requires input quantities in kg and m.)

- No chatgpt plsarrow_forwardConsider the situation in the figure below; a neutral conducting ball hangs from the ceiling by an insulating string, and a charged insulating rod is going to be placed nearby. A. First, if the rod was not there, what statement best describes the charge distribution of the ball? 1) Since it is a conductor, all the charges are on the outside of the ball. 2) The ball is neutral, so it has no positive or negative charges anywhere. 3) The positive and negative charges are separated from each other, but we don't know what direction the ball is polarized. 4) The positive and negative charges are evenly distributed everywhere in the ball. B. Now, when the rod is moved close to the ball, what happens to the charges on the ball? 1) There is a separation of charges in the ball; the side closer to the rod becomes positively charged, and the opposite side becomes negatively charged. 2) Negative charge is drawn from the ground (via the string), so the ball acquires a net negative charge. 3)…arrow_forwardanswer question 5-9arrow_forward
