An elephant weighs 6.818 Kg on earth, what is the weight in Jupiter if the gravity is 24.9 N/Kg to the correct significant digits Blank 1
The weight of the elephant in Jupiter would be 169.8 Kg.
Calculation:
Weight on Jupiter = (Weight on Earth ÷ Gravity on Earth) x Gravity on Jupiter
Weight on Jupiter = (6.818 Kg ÷ 9.81 N/Kg) x 24.9 N/Kg
Weight on Jupiter = 0.6944 x 24.9 N/Kg
Weight on Jupiter = 17.2586 Kg
Rounding to the correct significant digits:
Weight on Jupiter = 169.8 Kg
To find the weight of the elephant on Jupiter, we can use the formula:
Weight on Jupiter = Weight on Earth * (gravity on Jupiter / gravity on Earth)
First, let's convert the weight of the elephant on Earth from kilograms to newtons:
Weight on Earth = 6.818 kg * 9.8 N/kg (standard gravity on Earth) = 66.8124 N
Now, we can calculate the weight on Jupiter:
Weight on Jupiter = 66.8124 N * (24.9 N/kg) = 1661.4176 N
To the correct significant digits, the weight of the elephant on Jupiter is approximately 1661 N.
To calculate the weight of the elephant on Jupiter, we need to use the formula:
Weight on Jupiter = Weight on Earth × Gravity on Jupiter / Gravity on Earth
First, we'll convert the weight of the elephant from Kilograms (Kg) to Newtons (N), as weight is measured in Newtons. We can use the equation:
Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity
Given that the weight of the elephant on Earth is 6.818 Kg, we can calculate its weight on Earth using the acceleration due to gravity on Earth (approximately 9.8 m/s^2):
Weight on Earth = 6.818 Kg × 9.8 m/s^2 = 66.866 N
Now, we can substitute the values into the formula to calculate the weight of the elephant on Jupiter:
Weight on Jupiter = 66.866 N × (24.9 N/Kg / 9.8 m/s^2)
To the correct significant digits, we will round the answer to an appropriate number. However, you did not provide the significant digits for the answer, so Blank 1 represents the number of significant digits you want to use. Please provide the value for Blank 1 so I can give you the precise answer.
