Physics · GRAVITATION

हिन्दी

If the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is \( \frac{1}{6} \) of that on Earth and the radius of the Moon is \( \frac{1}{4} \) of the Earth's radius, then the ratio of the escape speed on the Earth to that on the Moon is:

  1. A
    \( \sqrt{6} \)
  2. B
    \( 2\sqrt{3} \)
  3. C
    \( 24 \)
  4. D
    \( 2\sqrt{6} \)
View Answer & Solution

Correct answer · Option D

\( 2\sqrt{6} \)

Explanation

Escape velocity is \( v = \sqrt{2gR} \). Therefore, \( \frac{v_E}{v_M} = \sqrt{\frac{g_E R_E}{g_M R_M}} = \sqrt{6 \times 4} = \sqrt{24} = 2\sqrt{6} \).
