If the radius of the Earth becomes double while its mass remains unchanged,what will be the change in the weight of an object of mass $m$ on the surface of the Earth?

The weights of an object are measured in a coal mine of depth $h_1$,then at sea level of height $h_2=0$,and lastly at the top of a mountain of height $h_3$ as $W_1, W_2$,and $W_3$ respectively. Which one of the following relations is correct? [$h_1 \ll R, h_3 \ll R, R=$ radius of the earth]

The ratio of gravitational acceleration at height $3R$ to that at height $4R$ from the surface of the earth is (where $R$ is the radius of the earth):

The weight of an object in a coal mine,at sea level,and at the top of a mountain are $W_1$,$W_2$,and $W_3$ respectively. Then:

The value of $g$ at the surface of the earth is $9.8 \, m/s^2$. Then the value of $g$ at a place $480 \, km$ above the surface of the earth will be nearly .......... $m/s^2$ (radius of the earth is $6400 \, km$).
