Are solved by group of students and teacher of neet which is also the largest student community of neet. Weight is the force by which an object is attracted to the center of a planet. The height at which the weight of a body becomes 116 th its weight on the surface of earth radius r is. The height at which the weight of a body becomes 19th its weight on the surface of earth 7773335. Therefore therefore the height at which the weight of a body becomes 1 by 16 its weight of surface on the earth is 19200 km. And weight at surface of earth is.
Find the height over the earths surface at which the weight of a body becomes half of its value at the surface. Here r is radius of earth ie r 6400 km now weight at height h is. Can you explain this answer. We know acceleration due to gravity at height h from the surface of earth is. The weight of an object is equal to the force exerted by the earth on it. The questions and answers of the height at which the weight of a body becomes 1th 16its weight on the surface of earth radius r isa3rb4 rc5 rd15 rcorrect answer is option a.
What is the height at which the weight of a body becomes 116th of its weight on the surface of the earth.
