- MCQ
The height of any point \(P\) above the surface of earth is equal to diameter of earth. The value of acceleration due to gravity at point \(P\) will be : (Given \(g=\) acceleration due to gravity at the surface of earth)
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(g / 9\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(g =\frac{ Gm }{ r ^{2}}\)
\(g ^{\prime}=\frac{ Gm }{(3 r )^{2}}\)
\(g ^{\prime}=\frac{ Gm }{9 r ^{2}}\)
\(g ^{\prime}=\frac{ g }{9}\)
