Question

The planet Mars has two moons – Phobos and Deimos. Phobos has a mass of 10.8 × 1015 kilograms, and Deimos has a mass of 2.0 × 1015 kilograms. How much greater is the mass of Phobos than the mass of Deimos?

Answer 1

The answer is 8932. I'm pretty sure... Hope it helps

Answer 2

mass of Phobos is 8.8 × 10¹⁵ Kilograms greater than mass of Deimos.

Explanation:

The planet Mars has two moons Phobos and Deimos.

Mass of Phobos = 10.8 × 10¹⁵ Kilograms

Mass of Deimos = 2 × 10¹⁵ Kilograms

So the difference in the masses of the moons

= 10.8 × 10¹⁵ - 2 × 10¹⁵

= (10.8 - 2) × 10¹⁵

= 8.8 × 10¹⁵ Kilograms

Therefore, mass of Phobos is 8.8 × 10¹⁵ Kilograms greater than mass of Deimos.
