Question

Consider an object of mass 50 kg. Estimate the weight of the object at a distance R, 2R,

4R, 6R and 10R from the centre of the earth. Plot a graph showing the weight of the

object with respect to the distance from the centre of the earth. What would happen to the

graph if the earth shrinks to half of its radius. Show on the graph how the mass of the

object varies with distance. What specific conclusions will you be able to draw from the

observations of the graph. List all your conclusions drawn.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Weight of an object on the surface of the earth is, W=mass×acceleration due to gravity=m×g=50×9.8=490N

The weight of 50 kg person at the surface of earth is 490N.

Weight of an object is defined as the gravitational pull exerted by the earth on the object.
