If the density of the earth is doubled keeping its radius constant, then acceleration due to gravity will be ........ $m/s^2$. $(g = 9.8\,m/sec^2)$
$19.6$
$9.8$
$4.9$
$2.45$
The height of the point vertically above the earth’s surface, at which acceleration due to gravity becomes $1\%$ of its value at the surface is (Radius of the earth $= R$)
Assuming earth to be a sphere of a uniform density, what is the value of gravitational acceleration in a mine $100\, km$ below the earth’s surface ........ $m/{s^2}$. (Given $R = 6400 \,km$)
A research satellite of mass $200 \,kg$ circles the earth in an orbit of average radius $3\,R/2$ where $ R$ is the radius of the earth. Assuming the gravitational pull on a mass of $1 \,kg$ on the earth’s surface to be $10 \,N$, the pull on the satellite will be ........ $N$.
The mass of the earth is $81$ times that of the moon and the radius of the earth is $3.5$ times that of the moon. The ratio of the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the moon to that at the surface of the earth is
What should be the velocity of earth due to rotation about its own axis so that the weight at equator become $3/5$ of initial value. Radius of earth on equator is $ 6400\, km$
