Calculate the average density of earth


Discuss the below:

Q1) The following formula represents the period of a pendulum,T. T = 2π(l/g)

(a) What would be the period of a 1.8 m long pendulum on the moon's surface? The moon's mass is 7.34 1022 kg, and its radius is 1.74x10^6 \

Q2) A force of 40.9 N is required to pull a 10.2 kg wooden block at a constant velocity across a smooth glass surface on Earth. What force would be required to pull the same wooden block across the same glass surface on the planet Jupiter?

Q3) A 1.1 kg mass weighs 10.78 N on Earth's surface, and the radius of Earth is roughly 6.4 106 m. (Use G = 6.67 10-11 Nm2/kg2.)

(a) Calculate the mass of Earth.

(b) Calculate the average density of Earth.

Q4) An apparatus like the one Cavendish used to find G has a large lead ball that is 6.2 kg in mass and a small one that is 0.040 kg. Their centers are separated by 0.055 m. Find the force of attraction between them. (Use G = 6.67 10-11 Nm2/kg2.)
