Answer 2

`g=0.66\ m/s^2`

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

The radius of Pluto is
`1.15* 10^6\ m`

Mass of Pluto is
`1.31* 10^(22)\ kg`

It is required to find the acceleration of gravity on its surface. The formula used to find the acceleration is given by :

`g=(Gm)/(r^2)\\\\g=(6.67* 10^(-11)* 1.31* 10^(22))/((1.15* 10^6)^2)\\\\g=0.66\ m/s^2`

So, the acceleration due to gravity on Pluto is
`0.66\ m/s^2`.
