The weight of a body on the surface of the earth is \(100\,N\). The gravitational force on it when taken at a height, from the surface of earth, equal to onefourth the radius of the earth is \(..........\,N\)
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(64\) \(N\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\Rightarrow g^{\prime}=\frac{g R^2}{r^2}=\frac{g R^2}{\left(R+\frac{R}{4}\right)^2}=\frac{16 g}{25}\)
\(\therefore \text { Weight }=\frac{16}{25} \times 100=64\,N\)
