The European Space Agency launched a probe called Rosetta in March 2004. In August​ 2014, Rosetta reached its​ destination: a comet called​ 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Rosetta is the first spacecraft to rendezvous with a comet. It contained a lander​ craft, called Philae.The Philae has a launch mass on the Earth of 220​pounds-mass ​[lbm​].If the Philae was deployed to Mars instead of Comet​ 67P, what would the weight of the lander be after landing on the

Answer:

The of the lander would be 75.66 pounds

Explanation:

From the question we are given that the

Weight of the Philae on Earth  is = 220 pound-mass

gravity of Mars is = 3.71 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]

Weight of the Philae on Mars is = ?

Now Mass is quantity of matter in an object so it is always constant for a particular object

Generally Weight = Mass × Gravity :

                      [tex]\frac{Weight Of Earth}{Gravity Of Earth} = \frac{Weight Of Mars}{Gravity Of Mars}[/tex]

Hence  

         Weight of the Philae on Mars is = [tex]\frac{Weight Of Earth *Gravity Of Mars}{Gravity Of Earth}[/tex]

                                                              [tex]=\frac{200 *3.71}{9.81}[/tex]

                                                              [tex]= 75.66 pounds[/tex]
