Undergrad Relationship between Gravity and Density
Thanks for your response. However, I am not sure I understand you. Are you telling me that once I have this equation: rA=krB that I need to solve for k in order to get the ratio between rA and rB? Also, what do you mean by "use the volume ratio to work out what mA is in terms of k and mB"? What...- uberhikari

Undergrad Relationship between Gravity and Density
Thank you for your response. And, yes, by gravity I mean "the force of gravity at the planet's surface." I also understand just about everything you said. I understand that the force of gravity is proportional to mass, which is proportional to volume, which is proportional to radius cubed, etc...- uberhikari

U
Undergrad Relationship between Gravity and Density
It would be greatly appreciated if someone could help me solve this problem. There are two objects, let's call them object A and object B. Assume that object B is the Earth and object A is some other planet. If object A has 10 times the gravity of object B (Earth) and assuming object A and...- uberhikari
