To calculate the acceleration due to gravity on a planet whose mass and diameter are both twice that of Earth, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for acceleration due to gravity The acceleration due to gravity (g) at the surface of a planet is given by the formula: \[ g = \frac{G \cdot M}{R^2} \] where: - \( G \) is the universal gravitational constant, - \( M \) is the mass of the planet, ...
