Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the ratio of the escape speeds of two planets given the ratios of their masses and radii, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Ratios**: - The ratio of the masses of the two planets is given as \( \frac{m_1}{m_2} = \frac{2}{3} \). - The ratio of the radii of the two planets is given as \( \frac{r_1}{r_2} = \frac{4}{9} \). ...
