Answer:
g' = 13.5 m/s²
Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity on surface of earth is given by the formula:
g = GMe/Re² --------------- euation 1
where,
g = acceleration due to gravity on surface of earth
G = Universal Gravitational Constant
Me = Mass of Earth
Re = Radius of Earth
Now, the the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Kepler-62e is:
g' = GM'/R'² --------------- euation 1
where,
g' = acceleration due to gravity on surface of Kepler-62e
G = Universal Gravitational Constant
M' = Mass of Kepler-62e = 3.57 Me
R' = Radius of Kepler-62e = 1.61 Re
Therefore,
g' = G(3.57 Me)/(1.61 Re)²
g' = 1.38 GMe/Re²
using equation 1:
g' = 1.38 g
where,
g = 9.8 m/s²
Therefore,
g' = 1.38(9.8 m/s²)
<u>g' = 13.5 m/s²</u>
