359813 The mass of the moon is \(\dfrac{1}{144}\) times the mass ofa planet and its diameter is \(\dfrac{1}{16}\) times the diameter of a planet. If the escape velocity on the planet is \(v\), the escape velocity on the moon will be

1 \(\dfrac{v}{4}\)
2 \(\dfrac{v}{12}\)
3 \(\dfrac{v}{3}\)
4 \(\dfrac{v}{6}\)
