Question
A planet in a distant solar system is 10 times more massive than the earth and its radius is 10 times smaller. Given that the escape velocity from the earth is 11 kms-1, the escape velocity from the surface of the planet would be
Options
A.1.1 kms-1
B.11 kms-1
C.110 kms-1
D.0.11 kms-1
= 10 × 11 = 110 km/sMore Gravitation Questions
