Let planet A and planet B be two spherical planets such that the gravitational field at the surface of A is 8.0 times stronger than the gravitational field at the surface of B. Also, the radius of planet A is double the radius of planet B. Which planet has a higher density, and by what factor?
(1) Express fields of the planets in terms of their mass and radii.
(2) Express their masses in terms of densities and radius.
