To determine which planet an object would weigh the most, we need to find the planet with the highest mass. Looking at the given estimated masses of the planets:
W = 6.4 * 10^23 kg
X = 3.3 * 10^23 kg
Y = 59.7 * 10^23 kg
Z = 48.7 * 10^23 kg
Out of these options, planet Y has the highest estimated mass, 59.7 * 10^23 kg. Therefore, an object would weigh the most on planet Y.
Thus, the correct answer is C. on planet Y.
Planet Estimated Mass of Planet (10²³ kg)
W=6.4
X =3.3
Y= 59.7
Z= 48.7
Assuming these planets were similar in radius, which planet would an object weigh the most? (1 point)
A. on planet W
B. on planet Z
C. on planet Y
D. on planet X
