medium

The mass of a planet and its diameter are three times those of earth's. Then the  acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the planet is ....... $m/s^2$

A

$3.3$

B

$4.9$

C

$19.6$

D

$29.4$

Solution

$\frac{\mathrm{g}_{\text {planet }}=\frac{\mathrm{G}(3 \mathrm{Me})}{(3 \mathrm{Re})^{2}}}{\mathrm{g}=\frac{\mathrm{GM}_{\mathrm{e}}}{\mathrm{Re}^{2}}}$

$g_{ planet}$ $=\frac{9.8}{3} \approx 3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$
