The value of acceleration due to gravity at a height of 4 R_E from surface of earth is R_E is radius of earth and acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth = 10 ~ms ⁻² )
Options
- A0.2 ~ms ⁻²
- B0.3 ~ms ⁻²
- C0.4 ~ms ⁻²
- D3 ~ms ⁻²
Correct answer
C. 0.4 ~ms ⁻²
Step-by-step solution
Acceleration due to gravity ' g ' varies with height as g^ =g ( R R+h )^2 Given R + h =5 R and g =10 ~m / s ^2 g^ =10 ( R 5 R )^2= 10 25 =0.4 ~m / s ^2
