Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Variation of g inside earth surface d < R = g = (Gm/R2) .d d=R =gs = (Gm/R2) d > R = g = (Gm/d2)

Q. The variation of acceleration due to gravity $g$ with distance $d$ from centre of the earth is best represented by (R = Earth’s radius) :

Variation of g inside earth surface
$d < R = g = \frac{G m}{R ^{2}} . d$
$d = R = g_{s} = \frac{G m}{R ^{2}}$
$d > R = g = \frac{G m}{d ^{2}}$

Q. The variation of acceleration due to gravity g with distance d from centre of the earth is best represented by (R = Earth’s radius) :

Variation of g inside earth surface d<R=g=R2Gm​.d d=R=gs​=R2Gm​ d>R=g=d2Gm​

Q. The variation of acceleration due to gravity $g$ with distance $d$ from centre of the earth is best represented by (R = Earth’s radius) :

Variation of g inside earth surface
$d < R = g = \frac{G m}{R ^{2}} . d$
$d = R = g_{s} = \frac{G m}{R ^{2}}$
$d > R = g = \frac{G m}{d ^{2}}$
