  • question_answer
    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) \[\frac{2}{3}m\]

    B) \[\frac{2}{9}m\]

    C) 18 m

    D) 6 m

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Applying conservation of total mechanical energy principle \[\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}=m{{g}_{A}}{{h}_{A}}=m{{g}_{B}}{{h}_{B}}\] \[\Rightarrow {{g}_{A}}{{h}_{A}}={{g}_{B}}{{h}_{B}}\] \[\Rightarrow {{h}_{B}}=\left( \frac{{{g}_{A}}}{{{g}_{B}}} \right){{h}_{A}}=9\times 2=18m\]
