You are touring a distant planet on which the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration is 65% of that near the earth's surface. For a little adrenaline, you decide to jump off a precipice 500m above the planet's surface. After 5 seconds of free fall, you ignite the jet pack on your back, changing your acceleration to some new, constant value for the rest of your fall. If you reach the surface 26 seconds after ingiting the jet pack, with what speed do you land?

A planet has the same density as Earth but has a surface
gravitational acceleration of nine times that of
the Earth (a person would instantly black out if placed on the
surface). What is the escape velocity from the planet? If
the planet was in an orbit of 1 AU from a 1 M⊙ star, what is
the maximum distance that a moon could orbit the planet?

1. On
a planet where the gravitational acceleration is g=10 m/s², a solid
cube of wood measuring one foot on each edge exerts a uniform
pressure of 3048 Pa on a flat tabletop due to its weight. Find the
wood's specific gravity and state whether it will float on water.
One foot is 0.3048 m.

crown is made of an alloy consisting of gold (19 g/cc) and copper
(9 g/cc). It weights 35 N in air, and 32.5...

You are a physiologist on a space flight to a distant planet.
You discover intelligent humanoid aliens inhabiting the planet and
they willingly submit to your tests. You discover that the alien's
kidneys handle substance X just like human kidneys handle inulin.
You also test the alien for its renal handling of substance Y. The
data from that experiment are: Plasma substance X concentration: 5
g/100ml; Plasma substance Y concentration: 2 g/100ml; 24 hour
urine: 2 liters, containing 150 g...

Astronauts on a distant planet toss a rock into the air. With
the aid of a camera that takes pictures at a steady rate, they
record the height of the rock as a function of time as given in the
table below. (Do the following in a computer spreadsheet or
programming environment. Your instructor may ask you to turn in

For a relatively weak gravitational field, such as that of a
planet or an ordinary star, the following formula tells us the
fractional amount of gravitational time dilation at a distance
r from the center of an object of mass
Mobject:
1c2×GMobjectr
(G=6.67×10?11m3/(kg×s2); c=3×108m/s.) For
example, while 1 hour passes in deep space far from the object, the
amount of time that passes at a distance r is 1 hour minus
1 hour multiplied by the factor above. (This formula...

On the distant planet Cowabunga , the weights of cows have a
normal distribution with a mean of 347 pounds and a standard
deviation of 37 pounds. The cow transport truck holds 13 cows and
can hold a maximum weight of 4654. If 13 cows are randomly selected
from the very large herd to go on the truck, what is the
probability their total weight will be over the maximum allowed of
4654? (This is the same as asking what...

1. How could the moons gravitational acceleration be measured
and using which equation ?
2. Say the mass of a pendulum is 2.2 kg and the length is
0.50m. Jack conducts an experiment and measures a period of 1.50s
what would be the value of g for the moon
3. Jacks teacher is unsure of his results so he makes jack
repeat the experiment a few more times with differing oscillation
amplitudes each time ? Would this be correct ?
