The weight of spaceman speff at the surface of planet x, solely due to its gravitational pull, is 389 n. if he moves to a distance of 1.86 × 104 km above the planet's surface, his weight changes to 24.31 n. what is the mass of planet x, if speff's mass is 75.0 kg? (g = 6.67 × 10 -11 n ∙ m2/kg2)

mass of the planet X = 5.6 × 10²³ kg.

Explanation:

According to Newtons law of universal gravitation,

F = GM₁M₂/r²

Where F = gravitational force, M₁ = mass of the speff, M₂ = mass of the planet X, G = gravitational constant r = distance between the speff and the planet X

making M₂ The subject of the equation above,

M₂ = Fr²/GM₁ equation 2

Where F = 24.31 N, r = 1.08×18⁴km ⇒( convert to m ) =1.08 × 10⁴  × 1000 m

r = 1.08  × 10⁷ m, G = 6.67  × 10 ⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg², M₁ = 75 kg

Substituting this values in equation 2,

M₂ = 24.13(1.08  × 10⁷ )²/75( 6.67  × 10 ⁻¹¹)

M₂ = 24.13 × 1.17 × 10¹⁴/500.25 × 10⁻¹¹

M₂ = (28.23 × 10¹⁴)/(500.25 × 10⁻¹¹)

M₂ = 0.056 × 10²⁵

M₂ = 5.6 × 10²³ kg.

Therefore mass of the planet X = 5.6 × 10²³ kg.

the working equation for the angular size is the product of the physical size and 360 degrees divided by the product of two pi and distance from earth. the minimum size would be 0.559 degrees while the maximum size would be 0.49 degrees.
