Question 1- A man has a mass of 65 kg on the Earth's surface. How far above the surface of the Earth would he have to go to "lose" 11 %of his body weight?

Question 2- A 195 kg object is taken to a height of 390 kmabove the Earth's surface. What is the object's mass at this height? and What is the object's weight at this height?

A space elevator has an altitude above the Earth's surface of 40,000km. What would be the kinetic energy of a 1kg mass at the end of our space elevator? What would be the gravitational potential energy of that mass? If the 1kg object fell way down to the Earth's surface, what would be its speed just before impact? (The radius of Earth is 6.4 x 106m)

A 1.88 -m ( 6 ft 2 in. ) man has a mass of 99 kg,...
A 1.88 -m ( 6 ft 2 in. ) man has a mass of 99 kg, a body surface area of 2.2 m 2 , and a skin temperature of 35.3 ∘ C. Normally, 80 % of the food calories he consumes go to heat; the rest goes to mechanical energy. His emissivity e is 1 because his body radiates almost entirely nonvisible infrared energy, which is not affected by skin pigment. (Careful! His body at 35.3 ∘ C radiates...

A man of mass m=74.0 kg is holding his breath and floating, at rest, on the surface of a lake. While holding his breath, his density is p=994.0 kg.m^3. He exhales, which increases his density to 1030.0 kg/m^3 and so he begins to sink. The density of water is 1000.0 kg/m^3. a) when the man is floating at the surface of lake, what percent of his body's volume is above water? b) once the man exhales, what is the buoyancy...

A person of mass 75 kg is standing on the surface of the Earth. a. Calculate the total energy of this individual, assuming they are at rest relative to the surface. (Hint: Use the expression for gravitational potential energy (*NOT Ug=mgh*)). Although the person is standing at rest relative to the surface of the Earth, they are rotating along with the Earth and thus store some kinetic energy.) Ignore the rotation of the Earth about the Sun, the motion of...

A satelite in a circular orbit has an orbital period of 189 minutes . On Earth the satelite weighs 980 N. The earth's mass is 5.97 × 1024 kg, its equatorial radius is 6.3 × 106 m, and G = 6.67 × 10−11 N • m2/kg2. How far is the satellite above the earths surface? How far is it from the earths surface? If the weight of the satelite on Earth were 8820 N instead of the 980 N given...
