Answer:
[tex]\frac{A_p}{A_m} = 18.302[/tex]
Explanation:
we know that surface area of the planet is given as
[tex]A_p = 4 \pi r_p^2[/tex]
surface area of the moon is given as
[tex]A_m = 4 \pi r_m^2[/tex]
[tex]A_p = 4 \pi *(6.29*10^6)^2 = 4.97*10^14 m^2[/tex]
[tex]A_m = 4 \pi *(1.47*10^8*10^{-2})^2 = 2.71*10^13 m^2[/tex]
therefore ratio of surface area of planet to surface area of moon is
[tex]\frac{A_p}{A_m} = 18.302[/tex]
