The following table gives the range of a particle when thrown on different planets. All the particles are thrown at the same angle with the horizontal and with the same initial speed . Arrange the planets in ascending order according to their acceleration due to gravity (g value)
`{:("Planet","Range"),("Jupiter",50 m ),("Earth",75 m ),("Mars",90 m ),("Mercury",95 m ):}`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since, ` g prop (1)/("Range")`
`g_("jupiter") = (1)/(50) = 0 . 02`
`g_("earth")= (1)/(75) = 0 . 0133`
`g_("mars") = (1)/(90) = 0.0111`
`g_("mercury")= (1)/(75) = 0 . 0 105`
`:. g_("mercury") lt g_("mars") lt g_("earth") lt g_("jupiter")`
