A projectile is fired from the surface of the earth with a velocity of 5 ms–1 and at an angle θ with the horizontal. Another projectile fired from another planet with a velocity of 3 ms–1 at the same angle follows a trajectory that is identical to the trajectory of the projectile fired from the Earth. The value of the acceleration due to gravity on the other planet is: (given g = 9.8 ms–2)

2. 5.9 m/s2
3. 16.3 m/s2
4. 110.8 m/s2
