Answer:0.25 times
Explanation:
Given
Distance of satellite from earth surface=Radius of earth
Force on the satellite is F=mg'
where g'=acceleration due to gravity at that point
Distance from center of Earth=R+R=2R
Gravitational Force is given by

Force 
Force on earth surface 
Divide 1 and 2 we get

Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Testing electricity is a good conductor of electricity.
·The acceleration of gravity is proportional to
1 / (the square of the distance from the center) .
When we're on the surface, we're 1 radius from the center of the Earth,
and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² .
The boy's weight = (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²)
= 490 newtons .
At the distance of 5 radii from the center (4 radii altitude from the surface),
the acceleration of gravity is
(9.8 m/s²) · (1/5)² = 0.39 m/s² .
The boy's weight is (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (0.39 m/s²)
= 19.6 newtons .
Just as we expected, his weight at that distance is
(19.6 / 490) = 0.04 = 1/25 = 1/5² of his weight on the surface.
