Given : planet X has mass 40 times and diameter 4 times that of the earth.
To Find : the acceleration due to gravity of planet X
Solution:
g = GM/R²
Mass is 40 times
Hence Mass = 40M
diameter 4 times => Radius 4 times
Hence Radius = 4R
g' = G (40M)/(4R)²
=> g' = (GM/R²) (40/16)
=> g' = (g) (5/2)
=> g' = 2.5 g
2.5 time of acceleration due to gravity of earth
g' = 2.5 * 10 = 25 m/s²
the acceleration due to gravity of planet X is 2.5 times that of earth
approx 25 m/s²

the acceleration due to gravity of planet X is
the acceleration due to gravity of planet X is
g=GM/R²
so we can start:-
here , M= 40 m
R= 4R
g'= G(40M)/(4R)²
g'=(GM/R²)/(40/16)
g'= (g) (5/2)
g'= 2.5 g
g'=2.5×10 m/s²
= 25 m/s²
the acceleration due to gravity of planet X is 25 m/s²
