If a man weighs 843.2 N on Earth what would he weigh on Jupiter where the acceleration due to gravity is 26.9 meter per second square?

If he weighs 843.2N then to get the mass we simply divide it by ten because acceleration due to gravity on earth is 10 m/s2. So the man will have a mass of 84.32 Kg. Using the equation F=ma, we shall calculate his weight, by simply multiplying 84.32 by 26.9. So the man will weigh 2268.208N, and his mass shall still remain constant.

What are the 4 brightest moons of Jupiter?

The four brightest moons of Jupiter are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. These moons are known as the Galilean moons and were discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610. They are among the largest moons in the solar system and are easily visible from Earth with binoculars or a small telescope.

If you weigh 80 pounds how much would you weigh on Jupiter?

If you weigh 80 pounds on Earth, you would weigh approximately 212.8 pounds on Jupiter due to Jupiter's higher gravity.

What do you think Jupiter smells like?

Why do you ask? It probably smells like gas.I think Jupiter smells like natural gas or some sort of gas. Sorry for the inconvenience but no one has ever been to Jupiter because if anyone touches Jupiter then they will be crushed because of how much pressure is on that planet. So I would just say that Jupiter smells like chemical and gas. Because Jupiter is made out of Methane, Vapor, Water, and Ethane so I would look up what Methane and Ethane are and just go from there but knowing that Methane, and Ethane are non odor gases then i would just say chemical and gas. :)

Which planet is only made of gas?

There are for planets made of gas not one they are Jupiter Neptune Saturn and Venus

What moon of Jupiter has a surface of water ice?

Europa is the moon of Jupiter with a surface made mostly of water ice. This moon is believed to have a subsurface ocean that may contain more water than all of Earth's oceans combined.

Which has more gravity Jupiter sun or moon?

The gravity of an object is determined by its mass and distance. Jupiter has more mass than the Moon, but the Sun has much more mass than both Jupiter and the Moon, making the Sun the most gravitationally influential of the three.

What are aliens from Jupiter called?

Oh, dude, aliens from Jupiter are technically called "Jovians." Yeah, like, I know, it sounds like a cool band name or something. So, if you ever meet a Jovian, just be like, "Hey, what's up, Jove?" But, like, good luck finding one because Jupiter is, like, really far away, man.

How do you compute Jupiter's orbital period around the sun in earth's days?

You first need two things: a) the mass of the Sun and b) Jupiter's orbital distance from the Sun. You can easily look up these values in any astronomy book. Once you got both down, apply the formula (which comes from Kepler's Third Law of Planetary Motion)

R3 = GMT2 / 4Pi2

where

R = the orbital distance of the planet (in meters)

G = the Gravitational Constant (whose value is 6.673x10-11)

M = the mass of the Sun (1.98x1030 kg)

T = the orbital period of the planet (in seconds). This is your target value.

The other operands are straightforward.

At this point, all you need to do is substitute the appropriate values in the formula, then rearrange and solve for T. Make absolutely certain you take into account the units; in this case, T will be calculated in seconds. When you have the value of T in seconds at the end of your calculation, simply convert it to days and you will get your answer. (Hint: There are 86,400 seconds in a standard Earth-day.)

Why did Jupiter fail to become a star?

  1. Jupiter isn't big enough to be a star.
  2. It doesn't give off light.
  3. It's not that hot. Only about 150 degrees below zero or something... Not even close to a star's temperature!

Is the planet Jupiter solid or gas?

Jupiter is a gas giant composed primarily of hydrogen and helium gases. It does not have a solid surface like Earth.

What is one characteristic that makes each gas giant easily reconised?

Jupiter's characteristic red and white bands, Saturn's iconic rings, Uranus's distinct blue-green color, and Neptune's dynamic weather patterns are features that make each gas giant easily recognizable.

Did Jupiter have any visits from the earth?

As of February 2010, eight robotic probes have made been to Jupiter. Seven visited Jupiter for short periods as they flew by. One remained in orbit around Jupiter for almost eight years. They are:

Galileo - 1995-2003 (orbit)

Pioneer 10 - 1973 (flyby)

Pioneer 11 - 1974 (flyby)

Voyager 1 - 1979 (flyby)

Voyager 2 - 1979 (flyby)

Ulyssess - 1992 (flyby)

Cassini - 2000 (flyby)

New Horizons - 2007 (flyby)

What is after the planet Jupiter?

In the Solar System Saturn is 'after' Jupiter.

What are Jupiter's 4 most important moons?

Jupiter's four most important moons are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. They are known as the Galilean moons and were discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610. These moons are of particular interest due to their varied geology and potential for hosting liquid water beneath their icy surfaces.

Why is Jupiter no longer call a planet?

Jupiter's planetary status has never and most likely never will be questioned. As of the this answering, Jupiter is a planet.

How many of Jupiter's cores would fit in Jupiter?

The size of Jupiter's core is unknown, although it is believed to be a similar volume to Earth. If this were true, Jupiter could fit 1,321 of its cores in itself.

Does Jupiter or Jupiter's moon have gold?

Jupiter and its moons do not contain significant amounts of gold. These celestial bodies are mainly composed of hydrogen, helium, and other elements like ice and rock. Gold is a rare element in the universe and is typically found in smaller bodies like asteroids or in the cores of larger planets.

What planet is 14.8 times heavier than earth?

Weight has no meaning in space. So heavier does not fit the category.

Planets have mass, which is different to weight. (See related question)

So the question should be, "What planet has 14.8 more mass than the Earth".

The mass of the Earth is 5.9736×1024 kg so, x 14.8 means we are looking for a planet that has a mass of about 8.840928 x 1025kg

The closest we can get is Uranus at 8.6810 ×1025 kg which is 14.536 Earths not 14.8.

What planet has clouds of water methane and ammonia make up the outer part of this planet atmosphere?

The planet with clouds made of water, methane, and ammonia in its outer atmosphere is Uranus. These gases contribute to the unique blue-green hue of the planet and its distinct atmospheric composition compared to the other gas giants in our solar system.

Do planets near the sun spin faster or slower than planets away from the sun?

The gas giants, the four planets farthest from the Sun, do spin faster than the inner planets.

However, rotational speed has almost nothing to do with the distance a planet is from the sun. Having said that, both the Sun and the Moon are responsible for the tides of the oceans which are still slowing the Earth down ever so slightly. The extremely slow rotation of Venus would have had other causes.

The rotational speeds of planets are the product of 4½ billion years of events. The angular momentum of the protostellar disc would have been transferred to growing planets. In the case of the gas giants, the tidal effects at their great distance from the Sun are extremely small compared to their masses. So they are still spinning vigorously. Even Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, is not rapidly losing its spin.

Is Jupiter the second or fourth brightest planet?

Jupiter is the second brightest planet in the sky after Venus and the fourth brightest object in the sky. The sun and the moon are the brightest objects in the sky, but they are not planets.

What is a unique feature of Jupiter?

1. that it is the biggest planet in the solar system.

2. Jupiter has many moons

3. Jupiter may have a rocky core but, we would die getting their if we tried to find out.

Is Jupiter the roman god the same god as Zeus the greek god?

Not sure what you are asking here, but this is the basics: The Greeks called the "God of all the Gods" Zeus, the Romans called him Jupiter. The name was used for the planet, because it is the biggest one in our solar system.

Why is Jupiter uninhabitable?

Jupiter is uninhabitable mainly due to the fact that it only has a very small rock core, and the rest of its mass is gas. Also, the gravity on Jupiter is about 254% of earth's, which means that humans would probably be squashed flat if we were fully exposed to it. On top of all this, there is also the small matter of the ever raging storms and the cosmic radiation, which would make living on Jupiter a very difficult feat.
