The escape velocity from a spherical planet $A$ is $10 \ km/s$. The escape velocity from another planet $B$ whose density and radius are $10\%$ of those of planet $A$, is . . . . . . $m/s$.

Gas escapes from the surface of a planet because it acquires an escape velocity. The escape velocity will depend on which of the following factors :
$I.$ Mass of the planet
$II.$ Mass of the particle escaping
$III.$ Temperature of the planet

Select the correct answer from the codes given below :

Explain escape speed. On what factors does escape velocity not depend?

Planet $A$ has mass $M$ and radius $R$. Planet $B$ has half the mass and half the radius of Planet $A$. If the escape velocities from the Planets $A$ and $B$ are $v_{A}$ and $v_{B}$ respectively,then $\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\frac{n}{4}$. The value of $n$ is
