The volume, density, color and mass of an object do not depend on where that object is placed.

Nevertheless, the vertical acceleration on free fall depends on the gravitational field where the object is placed. Additionally, the weight of an object depends both on its mass and its acceleration.

In this case, since the mass of the planet is twice the mass of the Earth, the acceleration will also be twice the acceleration on Earth.

Therefore, the two magnitudes that would not be the same as on Earth, are:


\begin{gathered} B)\text{ Weight} \\ F)\text{ Acceleration when it falls vertically} \end{gathered}
