Jupiter's moon Io has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the solar system) that eject material as high as 500 km (or even higher) above the surface. Io has a mass of 8.93×1022kg and a radius of 1821 km. Part A
How high would this material go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io? (RE = 6370 km, mE=5.96×1024kg)
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
View Available Hint(s)for Part A
Hint 1for Part A. Find speed of the material ejected from Io.
Step 1: Use conservation of energy (universal potential energy) to find the speed with which the material is ejected from Io. Remember that at the maximum altiute reached bu the material the speed is zero.

Step 2: After you find the speed of ejection from step 1, use the conservation of energy for the material ejected with this speed from Earth and find the altitude (distance from surface).

Isobars are lines of constant or equal pressure on a weather map. they can be used to find areas of low or high pressure over a broad area, and they can tell us how intense the system may be. on weather maps, you may have noticed areas that have a large l or h over a region with lines circling around them. the l stands for low pressure and h stands for high pressure. the lines circling them are isobars. check out the pressure system and isobars over georgia and florida. what is the present weather in this area ? a) clear and sunny b) cold and cloudy c) changing weather d) lots of precipitation
