Question 93

Multiple Choice

The mass of Pluto is 1.31×1022 kg1.31 \times 10 ^ { 22 } \mathrm {~kg} and its radius is 1.15×106 m1.15 \times 10 ^ { 6 } \mathrm {~m}
What is the acceleration of a freely-falling object at the surface of Pluto if it has no atmosphere? (G=6.67×1011 Nm2/kg2) \left( G = 6.67 \times 10 ^ { - 11 } \mathrm {~N} \cdot \mathrm { m } ^ { 2 } / \mathrm { kg } ^ { 2 } \right)


A) 0.661 m/s20.661 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }
B) 0.140 m/s20.140 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }
C) 9.81 m/s29.81 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }
D) 1.62 m/s21.62 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }
E) 3.72 m/s23.72 \mathrm {~m} / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }
