Assume a planet is a uniform sphere of radius r that (somehow) has a narrow radial tunnel through its center. also assume we can position an apple anywhere along the tunnel or outside the sphere. let fr be the magnitude of the gravitational force on the apple when it is located at the planet's surface. how far from the surface (what multiple of r) is there a point where the magnitude of the gravitational force on the apple is 0.3 fr if we move the apple (a) away from the planet and (b) into the tunnel?

Explanation:

Let mass of the apple be m . Force on it at surface of the planet can be expressed as follows

F_R  = G Mm / R²

Where M is mass of the planet.

Let at at height h the gravitational force on apple be 0.3 F_R

0.3 F_R  = G Mm / ( R +h)²

Dividing the two equation

1 / 0.3  =  ( R +h)²/ R²

( R +h)/ R = 1.825

h = .825 R

b )

If we go deep inside the planet to get force on apple equal to .3 F_R

.3 F_R = G  4/3 π ( R - h )³ d m / (R-h)²         [ d is density of planet ]

.3 F_R = G  4/3 π ( R - h ) d m

F_R  = G Mm / R²

F_R  = G 4/3πR³d m / R²

F_R  = G 4/3πR d m

dividing two equations

0.3 =  ( R - h ) / R

h = .7 R

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
