An astronaut uses a pendulum with a mass of 0.200 kg to measure the acceleration due to gravity on Planet X. He lifts the pendulum's mass a vertical height of 0.500 m and is able to determine that it gains 15.0 J of gravitational potential energy as it is lifted. Using this information, calculate the acceleration due to gravity (g) on Planet X

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

PE = mgh

g = PE/mh

g = 15.0 / (0.200(0.500))

g = 150 m/s²

This is one strong astronaut if he can work in an environment where gravity is more than 15 times stronger than on earth.
