$A$ body of weight $W$ is projected vertically upwards from the Earth's surface to reach a height above the Earth which is equal to nine times the radius of the Earth. The weight of the body at that height will be

  • A
    $W/81$
  • B
    $W/100$
  • C
    $W/9$
  • D
    $W/3$

Imagine a new planet having the same density as that of Earth but it is $3$ times bigger than the Earth in size. If the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Earth is $g$ and that on the surface of the new planet is $g^{\prime}$,then

$A$ mine is located at depth $\frac{R}{3}$ below the earth's surface. The acceleration due to gravity at that depth in the mine is ($R = \text{radius of earth}$,$g = \text{acceleration due to gravity at surface}$).

The height at which the acceleration due to gravity becomes $\frac{g}{9}$ (where $g$ = the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth) in terms of $R$,the radius of the earth,is

The ratio of the weights of a body on the Earth's surface to that on the surface of a planet is $9 : 4$. The mass of the planet is $\frac{1}{9}^{th}$ of that of the Earth. If $R$ is the radius of the Earth,what is the radius of the planet? (Assume the planets have the same mass density)
