If the mass of earth is $80$ times of that of a planet and diameter is double that of planet and $‘g’$ on earth is $9.8\,m/{s^2}$, then the value of $‘g’ $ on that planet is ........ $m/{s^2}$
A
$4.9$
B
$0.98$
C
$0.49$
D
$49$
Solution
(c) ${g_p} = {g_e}\,\left( {\frac{{{M_p}}}{{{M_e}}}} \right)\,{\left( {\frac{{{R_e}}}{{{R_p}}}} \right)^2} = 9.8\,\left( {\frac{1}{{80}}} \right)\,{(2)^2}$
$ = 9.8/20 = 0.49\,\,m/{s^2}$
