  B) The escape speed for Planet A must be four times as great as the escape speed from Planet B.
  C) The escape speed for Planet A is the same as the escape speed from Planet B.
  D) The escape speed for Planet A is greater than the escape speed from Planet B, but we cannot say how much greater.
  E) We cannot conclude anything about the escape speed for Planet A without knowing the radii of the two planets.
