The mass of a planet is th that of the earth and its diameter is half that of the earth. The acceleration due to gravity on that planet is:
- A
- B
- C
- D
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Acceleration due to gravity is given by:
Let be mass and radius of Earth.For the planet: $
g_e = 9.8\,\text{m/s}^2 $
Let be mass and radius of Earth.For the planet: $
g_e = 9.8\,\text{m/s}^2 $
