Near the martian equator, temperatures at the same spot can vary from an average of 135 °C at night to an average of 30 °C during the day. How can you explain such a wide difference in temperature compared to that on Earth?
Estimate the amount of water there could be in a global (planet-wide) region of subsurface permafrost on Mars (do the calculations for two permafrost thicknesses, 1 and 10 km, and a concentration of ice in the permafrost of 10% by volume). Compare the two results you get with the amount of water in Earth’s oceans calculated in Example 10.1.
On Mars, the average temperature is -64 °F and the average atmospheric pressure is0.92 kPa. (a) What is the number of molecules per volume in theMartian atmosphere? (b) Is the number of molecules per volumeon the Earth greater than, less than, or equal to the number pervolume on Mars? Explain your reasoning. (c) Estimate the numberof molecules per volume in Earth’s atmosphere
What would be the pressure 20m under water in a lake on Mars if the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 3.72 m/s2 ? Neglect the 0.006atm pressure of Mars atmosphere?
Mars atmosphere is only a few percent of the pressure of Earth's atmosphere. The Earth and Mars have similar surface temperatures at mid-day. Mars' atmosphere is 95% carbon dioxide, and would have an average molecular weight of about 44 AMU (atomic mass units). The Earth's atmosphere is mostly nitrogen with some oxygen, carbon dioxide, and argon. Its average molecular weight is therefore much less, at 28.9 AMU. Also on Mars the mean adiabatic index γ is about 1.1 compared to 1.4 for air on Earth. Since the speed of sound in dry air at Earth's surface is about 331 m/s, what would you expect the speed of sound to be on Mars? About 270 m/s because of Earth's atmosphere having less mass per molecule About 240 m/s because of the lower γ and higher molecular weight of Mars atmosphere. Very low because of Mars low atmospheric pressure The same as on Earth since the temperature is about the same.
Consider a fictitious planet FITONOUS (symbol (x) orbiting the Sun at a distance of 3 AU, with a mass of M(x)= 8 M(x) radius of R(x)= 2 R(x), and an albedo of A(x)= 0.50 (1) Compute the equilibrium temperature of the planet.
Assume that a planet will have lost its initial atmosphere by the present time if the average molecular speed exceeds one-sixth of the escape speed. What would Mercury's mass have to be in order for it to still have a nitrogen atmosphere? The molecular weight of nitrogen is 28.
The average temperature of the atmosphere has increased by 0.4°C over the last thirty years. Estimate how much energy has gone into warming up the planet in this way. Keep in mind that the atmosphere has a mass of 5 × 1018kg, and the specific heat capacity of air is about 1 Jg−1K−1.
What is the mass of Mars (6.39 ✕ 1023 kg) in MJ?
You have scored a great internship with NASA, working on planning for an upcoming mission to Mars. The transfer orbit to Mars will last for several months and will require reclamation of the oxygen in the carbon dioxide exhaled by the crew. In one method of reclamation, 1.00 mol of carbon dioxide produces 1.00 mol of oxygen and 1.00 mol of methane as a byproduct. The methane is stored in a tank under pressure and is available to control the orientation of the spacecraft by controlled venting. A single astronaut exhales 1.09 kg of carbon dioxide each day. If the methanegenerated in the respiration recycling of three astronauts during one week of flight is stored in an originally empty 150-L tank at -45.0°C, what is the final pressure in the tank?
What is a dust devil? Would you expect to feel more of a breeze from a dust devil on Mars or on Earth? Explain.
The temperature at one of the Viking sites on Mars was found to vary daily from -90.0°F to -5.0°C. Convert these temperatures to Kelvin. __________________________________________________________ Mercury boils at 357°C and freezes at -38.9°C.
