Two particles are projected vertically upwards with the same velocity on two different planets with accelerations due to gravity $g_1$ and $g_2$ respectively. If they fall back to their initial points of projection after lapse of times $t_1$ and $t_2$ respectively,then

Different planets have masses $M_1, M_2, M_3$ and radii $R_1, R_2, R_3$ respectively. The acceleration due to gravity on their surfaces are $g_1, g_2, g_3$ respectively. Based on the given graph,arrange their masses in descending order.
