The acceleration due to gravity on the planet A is 9 times the acceleration due to the gravity on planet B. A man jumps to a height of 2 m on the surface of A. What is the height of jump by the same person on the planet B

a
18m
b
6m
c
23m
d
29m

detailed solution

Correct option is A

We know that acceleration due to gravity decreases with height, i.e.,  g∝1/h∴ gAgB=hBhA  or  hB=gAgB×hAor hB=9gBgB×2=18m
