If a particle takes $t$ seconds less and acquires a velocity of $v \text{ m/s}$ more in falling through the same distance on two planets,where the accelerations due to gravity are $2g$ and $8g$ respectively,then:

  • A
    $v=4gt$
  • B
    $v=5gt$
  • C
    $v=2gt$
  • D
    $v=16gt$

$Assertion$ : In a free fall,the weight of a body becomes effectively zero.
$Reason$ : The acceleration due to gravity acting on a body in free fall is zero.

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 (where $x$ and $h$ are much smaller than the radius of the earth $R_e$):

The weight of a body at the surface of earth is $18 \, N$. The weight of the body at an altitude of $3200 \, km$ above the earth's surface is $........ \, N$ (given,radius of earth $R_e = 6400 \, km$).

At what height above the surface of the Earth does the value of $g$ decrease by $2 \%$? [Radius of the Earth is $6400 \, km$]
