The density of a newly discovered planet is twice that of Earth. The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the planet is equal to that at the surface of the Earth. If the radius of the Earth is $R$,the radius of the planet would be

The radii of two planets $A$ and $B$ are $R$ and $4R$ and their densities are $\rho$ and $\rho/3$ respectively. The ratio of acceleration due to gravity at their surfaces $(g_A : g_B)$ will be

$A$ mine is located at depth $\frac{R}{3}$ below the earth's surface. The acceleration due to gravity at that depth in the mine is ($R = \text{radius of earth}$,$g = \text{acceleration due to gravity at surface}$).
