Given:
The mass of the Jupiter, M=1.90×10²⁷ kg
The radius of the Jupiter, R=7.15×10⁷ m
To find:
The magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter.
Explanation:
The gravitational field strength is given by the formula,
[tex]g=\frac{GM}{R^2}[/tex]Where G is the gravitational constant.
On substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} g=\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.90\times10^{27}}{(7.15\times10^7)^2} \\ =24.8\text{ m/s}^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Final answer:
The acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 24.8 m/s²
