Escape Speed: Planet A has twice the mass of Planet B. From this information, what can we conclude about the escape speed for Planet A compared to that of Planet B?

A. The escape speed for Planet A must be twice as great as the escape speed from Planet B. 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.
