A body weight 72 N moves from the surface of earth at a height half of the radius of the earth , then gravitational force exerted on it will be .......

Answer»

72 N
28 N
10 N
32 N

Solution :`implies` WEIGHT = Gravitational force
`:.W = (GM_em)/(R_e^2)"" :.72 = (GM_em)/(R_e^2)`
Now w = `=(GM_em)/((R_e+R_e/2))=(GM_em)/((3/2R_e)^2)=(GM_em)/(3/2Re)=4/9(GM_em)/(-R_e^2)`
`:. W. = 4/9 XXW`
`:. W = 4/9 XX 72 = 32 N`
