There are two planets and the ratio of radius of the two planets is k but ratio of acceleration due to gravity of both planets is g. What will be the ratio of their escape velocities ?A. `(Kg)^(1//2)`B. `(Kg)^(-1//2)`C. `(Kg)^(2)`D. `(Kg)^(-2)`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Escape velocity, `v_(e)=sqrt(2gR)`
where, g is acceleration due to gravity and R is radius
Given, `(R_(1))/(R_(2))=K,(g_(1))/(g_(2))=g`
`rArr (v_(1))/(v_(2))=(sqrt(g_(1)R_(1)))/(sqrt(g_(2)R_(2)))=sqrt(Kg)rArr(v_(1))/(v_(2))=(Kg)^(1//2)`.
