  1. 2 Gravitation Easy
    A spherical planet has a mass $M_p$ and diameter $D_p$. A particle of mass m falling freely near the surface of this planet will experience an acceleration due to gravity, equal to

  1. 3 Gravitation Easy
    Imagine a new planet having the same density as that of earth but it is 3 times bigger than the earth in size. If the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth is $g$ and that on the surface of the new planet is $g'$, then -

  1. 4 Gravitation Easy
    The density of newly discovered planet is twice that of earth. The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the planet is equal to that at the surface of the earth. If the radius of the earth is R, the radius of the planet would be :-

  1. 5 Gravitation Easy
    The acceleration due to gravity on the planet A is 9 times the acceleration due to gravity on planet B. A man jumps to a height of 2m on the surface of A. What is the height of jump by the same person on the planet B.
