Oct. 31 – Halloween!!

Here's a photo of me from today!!

Here is the gravity review question from today:

The mass of the planet Jupiter is 318 times the mass of Earth and its radius is 10.0 times the radius of the Earth.

• a) What is your weight on Jupiter?
• b) What force do you exert on Jupiter?
• c) A 120. kg space probe approaches Jupiter. What acceleration due to gravity does it experience when it is 10 000. km above the “surface” of the planet?

Here's the solution:

Then I showed some full solutions to the challenging questions from previous handouts:

For Period 2:
Here's the solution to Newton's 3rd Law Handout question #6.

For Period 5:
Here's the solution to Physics Worksheet question #10.

Good luck in your studying, see you on Monday for the test!
