    $g$
  • B
    $g/20$
  • C

The depth $d$ at which the value of acceleration due to gravity becomes $\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)$ times the value at the surface of the earth is ($R=$ radius of the earth).

$R$ and $r$ are the radii of the Earth and Moon respectively. $\rho_e$ and $\rho_m$ are the densities of the Earth and Moon respectively. The ratio of the accelerations due to gravity on the surfaces of the Earth and Moon is

If the value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth is $g$,what will be the value of $g$ at a height equal to the radius of the Earth from the surface?

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)
