(D) gm/ge
Please explain.
let the magnitude of electric field used is E... magnitude of charge at moon and earth are qm & qe respectively.... at moon Eqm=mgm ..................1 at earth Eqe=mge ..................2 balancing the gravitational force by electric force dividing 1 and 2 qm/qe=gm/ge ........ option d is correct
let the magnitude of electric field used is E...
magnitude of charge at moon and earth are qm & qe respectively....
at moon
Eqm=mgm ..................1
at earth
Eqe=mge ..................2
balancing the gravitational force by electric force
dividing 1 and 2
qm/qe=gm/ge ........
option d is correct
Since electronic charge is universal (e = charge of electron) answer is '1'...........................................................
