The radii of two planets are `R_1 and R_2` and their densities are `rho_1 and rho_2` respectively. Then find ratio of acceleration due to gravity on the planets.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`implies` According to g `=4/3 piGRrho`
`g_1/(g_2) = (4/3piGR_1rho_1)/(4/3piGR_2rho_2)=(R_1rho_1)/(R_2rho_2)`
