Suppose that Planet X has 5 times the radius of the Earth and and 16 times Earth's mass. What is the ratio of the escape velocity on Planet X divided by the escape velocity on Earth?

Planet X has 20 times the mass of the earth and 3 times the earth's radius. It orbits star Y at a distance of 8 AU, where 1 AU is the earth-sun distance. Star Y has twice the mass of our sun. (a) What is the orbital period of Planet X in years? (b) An astronaut has an earth weight of 120 lbs. What is her weight on the surface of planet X?
012 10.0 points Planet X has a mass 4.86 times that of the Earth and a radius 2.83 times the radius of the Earth What is the ratio of the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Planet X to the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth?
A spherical planet has 12 times the earth's mass and has three times the earth's radius. It orbits a star with 5 times the sun's mass with an orbital period of 7 years. If an alien spaceship weighs 180 Zorgs on the alien planet (where a Zorg is the alien unit of weight), then what is the weight of their spaceship on earth in Zorgs?
The mass of planet Ais 100 times the mass of planet B. The radius of planet Ais 4 times the radius of planet B. The ratio of the escape velocities from planet B to that from planet Ais: 1/5 01/25 O 25 5
Suppose an object is launched from Earth with 0.52 times the escape speed. How many multiples of Earth's radius (RE 6.37 x 106 m) in radial distance will the object reach before falling back toward Earth? The distances are measured relative to Earth's center, so a ratio of 1.00 would correspond to an object on Earth's surface. For this problem, neglect Earth's rotation and the effect of its atmosphere For reference, Earth's mass is 5.972 x1024 kg. Your answer is...
Jupiter has a mass that is 320 times that of Earth and a radius that is 11.2 times that of Earth. What is the escape velocity from Jupiter in kilometers per second?
A hypothetical planet has 3 times the mass of Earth and twice the radius of the Earth. What is the surface gravity on this planet? r = Rplanet g = GMplanet / r2
please explain the answer 4) The escape velocity on the surface of a planet is given by 2GM R where G = 6.67 x 10-11m2 kg-1 3-2 is Newton's gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet, and R is the radius of the planet. The escape velocity is the velocity you have to thrown an object so that it does not come back down (better hit the gym!). Write v in terms of average mass density p. Recall...
A hypothetical planet has a mass 3 times that of the Earth and a radius twice that of the Earth. Calculate the value for acceleration due to gravity near the surface of this hypothetical planet.
Suppose an object is launched from Earth with 0.56 times the kinetic energy for escape. How many multiples of Earth's radius (RE = 6.37 x 106 m) in radial distance will the object reach before falling back toward Earth? The distances are measured relative to Earth's center, so a ratio of 1.00 would correspond to an object on Earth's surface. For this problem, neglect Earth's rotation and the effect of its atmosphere. For reference, Earth's mass is 5.972 x 1024...
