  • question_answer
    The moon's radius is 1/4 that of the earth and its mass is 1/80 times that of the earth. If g represents the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth, that on the surface of the moon is                     [MP PMT 1997; MP PET 2000, 01; RPET 2000; Pb. PET 2001]

    A) g/4      

    B)             g/5

    C)             g/6      

    D)             g/8

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    Using \[g=\frac{GM}{{{R}^{2}}}\] we get \[{{g}_{m}}=g/5\]
