Dear all,
I am interested in the connection between the smoothness of a planet and the gravitational acceleration at the surface. Specifically, what is the highest a mountain can be for different values of g? More pertitently, what % of the Earth's surface would be covered with water if the value of g decreased or increased during it's intitial formation?
If anyone works on these questions, or knows something about it, or ideallly could list some relevant papers published onthe subject, I would be most grateful.
Regards,
Natski
