The planet Uranus has a mass about 14 times the Earth's mass, and its radius is equal to about $3.7$ Earth radii. (a) By setting up ratios with the corresponding Earth values, find the acceleration due to gravity at the cloud tops of Uranus. (b) Ignoring the rotation of the planet, find the minimum escape speed from Uranus.
