Radius of earth is around 6000 km. The weight of body at height of 6000 km from earth surface becomes : |
Half One-Fourth One-third No change |
One-Fourth |
\(g'=g{{\left( \frac{R}{R+h} \right)}^{2}}\) Þ when h=R then : \(g'=\frac{g}{4}\) So the weight of the body at this height will become one-fourth. |
