The maximum vertical distance through which a full dressed astronaut can jump on the earth is 0.5m. Estimate the maximum vertical distance through which he can jump on the motion, which has a mean density 2/3 rd that of the earth and radius one-quarter that of the earth.A. 1.5mB. 3mC. 6mD. 7.5m

Answer» Correct Answer - B
On the moon, `g_(m) = (4)/(3)pi G(R//4) (2rho//3)`
`= (1)/(6) ((4)/(3)pi GR rho) = (1)/(6)g`
Work done in jumping `=m xx g xx 0.5 = m xx (g//6) h_(1)`
`h_(1) = 0.5 xx 6 = 3.0m`
