$\frac{G M m}{{(R + x)}^{2}} = \frac{G M m (R - x)}{R^{3}}$

->R³ = (R + x)² (R – x)

->R³ = (R²– x²) (R + x)

->x² + Rx – R² = 0

$x = \frac{- R \pm \sqrt[]{R + 4 R^{2}}}{2}$

$x = \frac{(\sqrt[]{5 R} - 1)}{2} R$

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.

Assertion A : The escape velocities of planet Ad and B are same. But A and B are of unequal mass.

Reason R : The product of their mass and radius must be same. M₁ R₁ = M₂R₂

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
