Answer:

g=9.64m/s^2.

Explanation:

Gravitational field strength (in other words, gravitational acceleration) is given as follows:g=GMR2g=R2GM​where G=6.674×10−11m3kg⋅s2G=6.674×10−11kg⋅s2m3​ is the gravitational constant, M=5.972×1024kgM=5.972×1024kg is the mass of the Earth, and R=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106mR=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106m is the distance from the center of the Earth to the required point above the surface (radius plus 60 km).

Answer:

C). Take your foot off the gas pedal. Then brake lightly until you are moving at low speed.                    

Explanation:

While driving on roads of rural areas, if our right wheel moves off the pavement, we should always hold the steering wheel firmly and then take our foot off the gas pedal, then apply brake lightly until we are moving at a low speed.

      When our wheels drift off the pavement area, we should not panic and yank. And instead of turning the wheel back in the left direction towards the road, it is always safer to take off our foot from the gas pedal and then apply brakes slowly. When our vehicle slows down check the incoming traffic behind us and then we should slowly move back on to the pavement.
