The acceleration due to gravity on moon is only one sixth that on earth. Ratio of moon radius (R_m) to earth.s radius (R_e) should be: (a) 6/1 if both are assumed to have same density (b) 1/6 if both are assumed to have same density (c) 5/18 if rho_e/rho_m is given as 5/3 (d) 9/5 if rho_m/rho_e is given as 3/5
