The centre of gravity of a body on the earth coincides with its centre of mass for a small object,whereas for an extended object,it may not. What is the qualitative meaning of 'small' and 'extended' in this regard? For which of the following does the centre of gravity coincide with the centre of mass: a building,a pond,a lake,a mountain?

Neglecting air resistance,is the acceleration due to gravity the same for both heavy and light objects?

The mass of a spherical planet is $4$ times the mass of the earth, but its radius $(R)$ is the same as that of the earth. How much work is done in lifting a body of mass $5 \,kg$ through a distance of $2 \,m$ on the planet (in $\,J$)? (Take $g = 10 \,ms^{-2}$ for Earth)

As we move from the poles of the Earth towards the equator,what happens to the value of the acceleration due to gravity $(g)$?

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)
