If the density of a small planet is the ...

If the density of a small planet is the same as that of earth while the radius of the planet is `0.2` times that of the earth the gravitational on the surface of that planet is :

A

0.2 g

B

0.4 g

C

2g

D

4g

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`g=4/3piGRrho`
`and g'4/3 piGR'rho`
`therefore(g')/(g) =(R')/(R)=0.2`
`g'=0.2g`
