plz mark me as a brainliest....
Explanation:
Okay we know that weight of an object = mg (Mass of the object x Acceleration due to gravity)
Okay now we know that accleration due to gravity (g) is given by:
g= GM/(R^2) (Let this be the first equation)
Where G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass of the Planet
R is the radius of the planet
Now changing the first equation we get
g= 4GM/(D^2)
where D is the diameter of the planet (R=D/2)
Now applying the conditions given in the question
Df (final diameter) = 2D
So g would be given as
g(f)= 4GM/(4D^2) (here gf is the final accleration due to gravity)
g(f)= GM/D^2
so comparing g(f) and g, we can clearly see that… g= 4 g(f)
so g(f)= g/4
That is we can say that the wight of the object would be 1/4 (one-fourth of its initial value).
