Q. Take the effect of bulging of earth and its rotation in account. Consider the following statements.
(A) There are points outside the earth where the value of

g

is equal to its value at the equator.
(B) There are points outside the earth where the value of

g

is equal to its value at the poles.

Q. Statement-1 : There is almost no effect of rotation of earth at poles.
Statement-2 : Because rotation of earth is about polar axis.

Q. Assertion :If the radius of earth is decreased keeping its mass constant, effective value of

g

may increase or decrease at pole. Reason: Value of

g

on the surface of earth is given by

g = \frac{G M}{R^{2}}

Q. R is the radius of the earth and to is its angular velocity and gp is the value of g at the poles. The effective value of g at the latitude A =

60^{\circ}

will be equal to.

Q. At what angular speed the Earth should rotate, so that effective acceleration due to gravity at

45^{\circ}

latitude becomes half of effective acceleration due to gravity at pole? (Radius of earth is

R

and acceleration due to gravity without taking variation of Earth’s rotation at surface is

‘ g^{'}
