a being the acceleration due to gravity at some distance r from the center of the Earth. I'll use 6400 km for the radius of the Earth so r = 6734 km or 6734000 meters
a = GM/r^2
plugging in G = 6.67 x 10^-11
M is the mass of the Earth = 6 x 10^24
and r is from above
a = 8.825 m/s^2 = 0.9g
so 90% the acceleration of gravity on the surface.
Answer: The law of conservation of energy is a physical law that states energy cannot be created or destroyed but may be changed from one form to another. Another way of stating this law of chemistry is to say the total energy of an isolated system.
