Answer:
2 kg mass will be sister because 3×1=3,
3-1 = 1
= 2kg mass will evaluate

Answer:
Let the mass and radius of earth be x and y respectively
So, the mass and radius of the planet will be 2x and 3y respectively.
Gravitational force on earth = G*(x*1) / y^2
Gravitational force on other planet = G(2x*1)/(3y)^2
We have to find the ratio of
(G on earth : G on other planet)
= G*x*1 / y^2 / G(2x*1)/(3y)^2
= 9:2 = 4.5
So, the weight of 1 kg on that planet will be equal to 4.5 kg weight on earth
Hope this helps you..
