Consider a planet with twice the surface gravity of Earth. The maximum height to which shield volcanoes could grow is how many times that on Earth?

A. 0.25

B. 0.5

C. 1

D. 2

The maximum height is given by [tex]h=\frac{u^2sin^2\Theta }{2g}[/tex] here h is the maximum height u is the initial velocity and [tex]\Theta[/tex] is the angle of projection

So we can see from the relation that height is universally proportional to the gravity now in question it is given that the planet has the twice the surface gravity than the earth so the height will be half
