If the ratio of the orbital distance of two planets(d_(1))/(d_(2))= 2what is the ratio of gravitational field experienced by these two planets?

Answer»

SOLUTION :The gravitationalfieldexpreriencedby planets1
` E_(1)= (GM)/(d_(1)^(2))`
The gravitationalfieldexperienced by PLANET 2
`E_(2) = (GM)/(d_(2)^(2))`
The ratioof their orbital distance `d_(1)=2d_(2)`
Theratio of gravitationalfieldof two PLANETS .
` (E_(1))/(E_(2)) = (GM)/((2d_(2))^(2))xx (d_(2)^(2))/(GM) = (GM)/(4d_(2)^(2)) xx (d_(2)^(2))/(GM) `
`(E_(1))/(E_(2)) = 1/4`
` :."" E_(2) = 4E_(1)`
