Suppose that a woman masses 44kg. She weighs herself on the surface of a planet that has no atmosphere (no air resistance) where, if she fell freely, she would accelerate down at 11m/s^2. How much does she weight on that planet?
Solution)
We know, weight w=mass* acceleration due to gravity
So, W= 44 kg* 11 m/s^2 =484 kg (Ans)

Good luck!:)

1. A woman weighs 129lbf on the earth. a. What does she weigh on the planet Mars? You will need to look up gmas b. c. d. e. f. What is her mass in lbm on both earth and mars? What is her mass in slugs on both earth and mars? What is her mass in grams on both earth and mars? What is her weight in stones (look up stone as an ancient unit) on both earth and mars?...
Suppose you are a space traveler, and you land on the surface of a strange new planet. As stated in your Starfleet Manual, your first job is to measure the acceleration due to gravity, g, on this planet. You construct an "Atwood machine", which consists of two masses connected to a pulley by a string of negligible mass, as shown in the figure. One of the masses is m1 = 50.0 kg and the other is m2 = 39.0 kg....
Captain Kiddo is on a Space mission and she found herself in a conundrum. She was outside of her spaceship (in the middle of Space), when the rope that tied her spacesuit to her spaceship snapped. She has just seen the movie The Martian' and remembers that in a scene, Matt Damon pinched his spacesuit and use the air contained in it for propulsion. In a desperate effort to catch back with her spaceship captain Kiddo does the same. A)...

An elderly woman wants to begin an exercise program to keep herself healthy. What would you advise? It is too late to begin a program if she has not been exercising previously. She should aim for 150 minutes or whatever she can safely perform each week. O She needs to avoid weight-bearing exercise if she has lost bone density. Resistance training may accelerate muscle loss and should be...
An astronaut weighs 850 N on the Earth’s surface. When the astronaut lands on Planet X, she weighs 190 N. To the nearest tenth of a m/s2, what is the acceleration of gravity on Planet X? (hint: first find her mass!) An elevator car loaded with two passengers has a mass of 1200 kg. What tension must be applied by the elevator cable to give the car an acceleration of 1 m/s2 upward? Round your answer to the nearest newton....
A spherically symmetric planet has 2 times the Earth's mass and twice its radius. If a jar of peanut butter weighs 12N on the Earth, how much would it weigh on the surface of this planet? depends if it's Skippy creamy or super-chunky peanut butter.
Samantha the astronaut visits planet X. She plans a low-tech experiment to do that will demonstrate basic physics concepts to kids watching at home. First, while still on Earth she makes a pendulum that will have a period of Length Next, she has a spring with k 25 N/m. She wants to have a mass hang from the spring and oscillate up and down with the same period. How much mass should she put on the spring? mass kg Samantha...
