The diameters of two planets are in the ratio `4:1` and their mean densities in the ratio `1:2` The acceleration due to gravity on the particles wil be in ratio.

A

`1:2`

B

`2:3`

C

`2:1`

D

`4:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`g=(4)/(3)GpiR rhorArr (g_(1))/(g_(2))=(rho_(1)R_(1))/(rho_(2)R_(2))=(1)/(2)xx(4)/(1)=(2)/(1)`
