Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The formula for surface gravity is g = G*M/r^2, where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet, and r is the radius of the planet.

Plugging in the values given, we get:

g = (6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2) * (1.9 x 10^27 kg) / (7.14 x 10^8 m)^2

g = 24.9 N/kg

Therefore, the best choice is B) 24.9 N/kg.

The Mass of Jupiter Is 1
