The acceleration due to gravity at a depth of 1600km inside the earth is
A man weighs 600 N on the Earth. If he was taken to the Moon, his weight would be 100 N. What is the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon? (Take g=10 ms−2)
Calculate acceleration due to gravity at a height of 2000 km above the Earth's surface. Mass of Earth = 6×1024 kg, radius of Earth = 6.4×106 m and (Gravitational constant, G =6.7×10−11Nm2kg−2)
The value of g (acceleration due to gravity) at earth's surface is 10 ms-2 its value in ms-2 at centre of earth which is assumed to be a sphere of radius R metre and uniform mass density is
