Answer:
Mass of planet B is two times of mass of planet A .
Explanation:
Given-----> Radius of planet A is half the radius of planet B and value of g on B is half that of its value on A .
To find-----> Mass of B .
Solution-----> We know that ,
g = G m / r²
Here we have two planet A and B .
Let radius , mass and gravitational acceleration of planet A and B be r₁ , m₁ ,g₁ and r₂ , m₂ , g₂ respectively .
ATQ, Radius of planet A is half the radius of planet B
R₁ = R₂/2
=> 2 R₁ = R₂
Value of g on B is half that of its value on A
g₂ = g₁ / 2
=> G m₂ / R₂² = ( G m₁ / R₁² ) ( 1 / 2 )
G is cancel out from both sides , we get,
=> m₂ / R₂² = m₁ /2 R₁²
By cross multiplication , we get,
=> 2m₂ R₁² = m₁ R₂²
Putting R₂ = 2R₁ , in it we get,
=> 2 m₂ R₁ ² = m₁ ( 2R₁ )²
=> 2 m₂ R₁² = m₁ ( 4 R₁² )
R₁² cancel out from both sides , we get,
=> 2 m₂ = 4 m₁
=> m₂ = 4m₁ / 2
=> m₂ = 2m₁
So mass of planet B is two times of mass of planet A .
