If the change in the value of $g$ at a height $h$ above the surface of the earth is the same as at a depth $x$ below it,then (both $x$ and $h$ being much smaller than the radius of the earth)

The approximate height from the surface of earth at which the weight of the body becomes $\frac{1}{3}$ of its weight on the surface of earth is $.......... \, km$ : [Radius of earth $R = 6400 \, km$ and $\sqrt{3} = 1.732$]

Assuming the density of the Earth is constant, which graph correctly represents the variation of acceleration due to gravity $(g)$ with the distance $(r)$ from the center of the Earth (radius of the Earth $= R$)?

$A$ body weighs $W$ newton on the surface of the earth. Its weight at a height equal to half the radius of the earth will be:

At what height above the Earth's surface does the acceleration due to gravity become $1\%$ of its value at the Earth's surface (in $R$)? (Radius of Earth $= R$)
