A) The mass is an intrinsic property of an object: it means it depends only on the properties of the object, so it does not depend on the location of the object. Therefore, Gary's mass at 300 km above Earth's surface is equal to his mass at the Earth's surface.
b) The weight of an object is given by
where
m is the mass
is the gravitational acceleration at the location of the object, with G being the gravitational constant, M the mass of the planet and r the distance of the object from the center of the planet.
At the Earth's surface,
, so Gary's weight is
(1)
where m is Gary's mass.
Then, we must calculate the value of g at 300 km above Earth's surface. the Earth's radius is
So the distance of Gary from the Earth's center is
The Earth's mass is
, so the gravitational acceleration is
Therefore, Gary's weight at 300 km above Earth's surface is
(2)
If we compare (1) and (2), we find that Gary's weight has changed by
So, Gary's weight at 300 km above Earth's surface is 91% of his weight at the surface.

So, Gary's weight at 300 km above Earth's surface is 91% of his weight at the surface.
Answer:
A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power.
Explanation:
The power of an object is given by :
Here,
E is the energy required
t is time
The SI unit of power is Watts and the SI unit of energy is Joule. the commercial unit of energy is kilowatt per hour.
Option (1) : A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power is incorrect.
Option (2) : A gigawatt (GW) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (3) : A watt (W) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (4) : A kilowatt x hour per year (kWh/yr) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (4) : A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power is correct.
Hence, the correct option is (d).
