    There are two planets and the 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 velocity?

    A)  \[{{(Kg)}^{1/2}}\]                           

    B)  \[{{(Kg)}^{-1/2}}\]

    C)  \[{{(Kg)}^{2}}\]               

    D)  \[{{(Kg)}^{-2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     At a certain velocity of projection the body will go out of the gravitational field of earth and never return to earth, this initial velocity is known as escape velocity. \[{{v}_{e}}=\sqrt{2gR}\] where g is acceleration due to gravity and R is radius. Given,                   \[\frac{{{R}_{1}}}{{{R}_{2}}}=K,\frac{{{g}_{1}}}{{{g}_{2}}}=g\]                                 \[\frac{{{v}_{1}}}{{{v}_{2}}}=\frac{\sqrt{{{g}_{1}}{{R}_{1}}}}{\sqrt{{{g}_{2}}{{R}_{2}}}}=\sqrt{Kg}\]                                 \[\frac{{{v}_{1}}}{{{v}_{2}}}={{(Kg)}^{1/2}}\]
