THE MASS OF VENUS IS 81.5% OF THE EARTH AND ITS RADIUS IS 94.9% THAT OF THE EARTH. A)COMPUTE THE ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY ON THE SURFACE OF VENUS FROM THESE DATA.B)IF A ROCK WEIGHS 75.0N ON EARTH,WHAT WOULD IT WEIGH ON THE SURFACE OF VENUS?

Answer 1

a. g is proportional to Mass/radius^2

gvenus=9.8*.815/.949^2= you do it.

b. weight=75*gvenus above.

Answer 2

0.859
