There is a planet which is $8$ times more massive and $27$ times denser than the Earth. If $g^{\prime}$ and $g$ are the accelerations due to gravity on the surfaces of the planet and the Earth respectively,then:

  • A
    $g^{\prime} = 8g$
  • B
    $g^{\prime} = 27g$
  • C
    $g^{\prime} = 18g$
  • D
    $g^{\prime} = \frac{9}{4}g$

$A$ planet of radius $R = \frac{1}{10} \times$ (radius of Earth) has the same mass density as Earth. Scientists dig a well of depth $\frac{R}{5}$ on it and lower a wire of the same length and of linear mass density $\lambda = 10^{-3} \ kg \ m^{-1}$ into it. If the wire is not touching anywhere,the force applied at the top of the wire by a person holding it in place is (take the radius of Earth $= 6 \times 10^6 \ m$ and the acceleration due to gravity on Earth $g_e = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $N$)
