Acceleration due to gravity on moon is $\frac 16$ of the acceleration due to gravity on earth. If the ratio of densities of earth $({\rho _e})$ and moon $({\rho _m})$ is $\left( {\frac{{{\rho _e}}}{{{\rho _m}}}} \right) = \frac{5}{3}$ then radius of moon $R_m$ in terms of $R_e$ will be

  • A

    $\frac{5}{{18}}{R_e}$

  • B

    $\frac{1}{6}{R_e}$

  • C

    $\frac{3}{{18}}{R_e}$

  • D

    $\frac{1}{{2\sqrt 3 }}{R_e}$
