NEET Physics Question (2024) — Solution

Question

An object of mass 100 kg falls from point A to B as shown in figure. The change in its weight, corrected to the nearest integer is ( R_E is the radius of the earth)

Options

  1. A. 49 N
  2. B. 89 N
  3. C. 5 N
  4. D. 10 N

Answer

A. 49 N

Step-by-step solution

M g^ =M g R^2 (R+h)^2 At A M g^ =M g R^2 (R+2 R)^2 = M g 9 At B M g^ =M g R (R+ 3 R 2 )^2 = M g 4 25 Change in weight =M g 4 25 - M g 9 =49 ~N
