$A$ box weighs $196 \; N$ on a spring balance at the North Pole. Its weight recorded on the same balance if it is shifted to the equator is close to ....... $N$ (Take $g = 10 \; m/s^2$ at the North Pole and the radius of the Earth $R = 6400 \; km$).

Assuming the earth to be a sphere of uniform density,the acceleration due to gravity inside the earth at a distance of $r$ from the centre is proportional to

The acceleration due to gravity on the earth's surface at the poles is $g$ and the angular velocity of the earth about the axis passing through the poles is $\omega$. An object is weighed at the equator and at a height $h$ above the poles by using a spring balance. If the weights are found to be the same,then $h$ is: ($h << R$,where $R$ is the radius of the earth)

The radius of the Moon is $\frac{1}{4}$ times that of the Earth,and its mass is $\frac{1}{80}$ times that of the Earth. If the acceleration due to gravity on Earth is $g$,what is the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon?
