11.) g = 3.695 m/s^2

12.) g = 8.879 m/s^2

13.) E = 8127 N/C

Explanation:

11.) Given that the

Mercury mass M = 3.3 × 10^23kg

Radius r = 2.44 ×10^6 m

Gravitational constant G = 6.67408 × 10^-11 m3kg-1 s^-2

Gravitational field strength g can be calculated by using the formula below

g = GM/r^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

g = (6.67408 × 10^-11 × 3.3 × 10^23)/(2.44×10^6)^2

g = 2.2×10^13/5.954×10^12

g = 3.695 m/s^2

12.) Given that the

Venus mass M = 4.87×10^24kg

Radius r = 6.05 × 10^6 m

Using the same formula for gravitational field strength g

g = GM/R2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

g = (6.67408 × 10^-11 × 4.87×10^24)/(6.05×10^6)^2

g = 3.25×10^14/3.66×10^13

g = 8.879 m/s^2

13.) Given that the

Charge = 2.26 nC = 2.26×10^-9

Distance d = 0.05m

Electric field strength E can be calculated by using the formula below

E = Kq/d^2

Where

K = electrostatic constant 8.99 × 10^9 Nm2/C2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

E = (8.99 × 10^9 × 2.26×10^-9)/0.05^2

E = 20.3174/2.5×10^-3

E = 8126.96 N/C
