$A$ spherical planet far out in space has a mass $M_0$ and diameter $D_0$. $A$ particle of mass $m$ falling freely near the surface of this planet will experience an acceleration due to gravity which is equal to

If acceleration due to gravity at distance $d < R$ from the centre of the Earth is $\beta$,then its value at distance $d$ above the surface of the Earth will be [where $R$ is the radius of the Earth].

If both the mass and the radius of the earth decrease by $1\%$,the value of the acceleration due to gravity will
