If the radius of Earth is 6000 km, what will be the weight of 120 kg body (in kg Wt.) if taken to a height of 2000 km above sea level (i.e., surface of the Earth).
With usual notation, R = 6000 km, h = 2000 km
If g and gh denote the values of acceleration due to gravity on the surface and at a height h, then
Thus, the weight at a height of 2000 km
