Question
Saturn has a radius of about 9.0 earth radii, and a mass 95 times the Earth’s mass. Estimate the gravitational field on the surface of Saturn compared to that on the Earth.
So I was doing this and I got stuck here;
gs = G*Ms/Rs² = G*(95Me)/(9²Re²) = ge*(95/9²) = 1.173*ge ....
Am I even doing this right?
