    If the mass of earth is 80 times of that of a planet and diameter is double that of planet and ?g? on earth is \[9.8\,m/{{s}^{2}}\], then the value of ?g? on that planet is [Pb. PMT 1999; CPMT 2000]

    A)             \[4.9\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    B)               \[0.98\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    C)             \[0.49\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    D)               \[49\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    \[{{g}_{p}}={{g}_{e}}\,\left( \frac{{{M}_{p}}}{{{M}_{e}}} \right)\,{{\left( \frac{{{R}_{e}}}{{{R}_{p}}} \right)}^{2}}=9.8\,\left( \frac{1}{80} \right)\,{{(2)}^{2}}\]             \[=9.8/20=0.49\,\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]
