Gravitation

Q1.

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 acceleration due to gravity equal to:

  • \\(\\dfrac{4GM_pm}{D_p^2}\\)
  • \\(\\dfrac{4GM_p}{D_p^2}\\)
  • \\(\\dfrac{GM_pm}{D_p^2}\\)
  • \\(\\dfrac{GM_p}{D_p^2}\\)
