Question

w = 22 n (pluto image) w = 27 n (triton image) how many times heavier is this person on triton than on pluto? remember: w=mg 1.2 times as heavy 5.5 times as heavy 2.2 times as heavy 1.4 times as heavy

Explanation:

Step1: Identify weights on Triton and Pluto

Weight on Pluto, \( w_{Pluto} = 22 \, N \)
Weight on Triton, \( w_{Triton} = 27 \, N \)

Step2: Calculate the ratio of weights

To find how many times heavier the person is on Triton than on Pluto, we take the ratio of the weight on Triton to the weight on Pluto.
\[
\text{Ratio} = \frac{w_{Triton}}{w_{Pluto}} = \frac{27}{22} \approx 1.2
\]

Answer:

1.2 times as heavy
