Answer:
The surface gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the planet
Explanation:
The gravity at the surface of a planet is given by:
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass of the planet
R is the radius of the planet
We see from the formula that the surface gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the planet, R.
At the Earth's surface, the value of the surface gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s^2.

Let's analyze the situation as spring goes from stretched to unstretched state.
When you stretch the string you have to use force against ( you are doing work) this energy is then stored in the spring in the form of potential energy. When we release the spring the energy is being used to push the two carts. When the spring reaches its unstretched length its whole initial potential energy has been used on the carts, and this is the moment when two carts have maximum velocity.
The potential energy of compressed ( stretched) spring is:
The kinetic energy of two carts is:
So we have:
Momentum also has to be conserved:
Momentum before the release of the spring is zero so it has to stay zero. We plug this back into the expresion we got from law of conservation of energy and we get:
Now we go back to the momentum equation:
