The acceleration due to gravity on the planet `A` is `9` times the acceleration due to gravity on planet `B`. A man jumps to a height of `2m` on the surface of `A`. What is the height of jump by the same person on the planet `B`?

A

2/9 m

B

18 m

C

6 m

D

2/3 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Height of jump on the planet B =`g_A/g_B`x height of jump on the planets A (`because` mgh=constant)
