Answer:
weight at height = 100 N .
Explanation:
The problem relates to variation of weight due to change in height .
Let g₀ and g₁ be acceleration due to gravity , m is mass of the object .
At the surface :
Applying Newton's law of gravitation
mg₀ = G Mm / R²
At height h from centre
mg₁ = G Mm /h²
Given mg₀ = 400 N
400 = G Mm / R²
400 = G Mm / (6400 x 10³ )²
G Mm = 400 x (6400 x 10³ )²
At height h from centre
mg₁ = 400 x (6400 x 10³ )²/ ( 2 x 6400 x 10³)²
= 400 / 4
= 100 N .
weight at height = 100 N
