If you quadrupled the mass and quintupled the radius of a planet, by what factor would g at its surface change?
Concept - use the equation for acceleration due
to gravity on the surface of the planet to find the required factor
as shown below

An earth-like planet has a mass of 3.00x1024 kg and a radius of 8000 km. What is the gravitational field, g, on the surface of this planet? (We can simplify the Gravitational Constant G to 6.7x10-11 Nm-/kg) N/kg Submit Answer Tries 0/2 What is the force of gravity on an 92 kg alien standing on the surface of this planet? Submit Answer Tries 0/2 An earth-like planet has a mass of 6.00x1024 kg and a radius of 4000 km. A...
A planet has a mass of M1, a radius of R1, and a density of Q1 A second planet has a mass of M2, a radius of R2, and a density of g2. This problem will explore the relationships between the surface gravities (g1 and g2) of the planets depending on the relative sizes of their masses, radii, and densities. Assume that planet 2 has X times the mass of planet 1, or M2 - XM1. The densities of both...
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
