ANSWER
g∝R2GM
So, gp=(MeMp×(RpRe)2)g
=2×(21)2g
=2g=4.9 m/s2
yeah

Explanation:
Let:
Mass of the earth = M
Radius of the earth = R
Universal constant = G
Mass of a certain object = m
From Newton's law of universal gravitation.
When the object is on earth's surface, the gravie force exerted on it is given by
F = GMm/R^2________________(1)
The weight of the object on earth surface is given by
W = mg = 9.8*m___________(2)
Since the weight of a body is a measure of the gravitational influence on it. We can then equate (1) and (2)
GMm/R^2 = 9.8*m
GM = 9.8R^2____________(3)
Now let's consider when the object is at a height, h, above the earth's surface. The Newton's law will look like this
F' = GMm/(R + h)^2_________(4)
Let weight and gravity at the given height be W' and g'. Hence weight at this point is given as
W' = m*g'______________(5)
Again F' = W'
GMm/(R +h)^2 = m*g'
GM = g'(R + h)^2___________(6)
Equate (3) and (6)
9.8R^2 = g'(R + h)^2
g' = 9.8R^2/(R +h)^2___________(7)
In your question uou said the object is at a height equal radius of the earth. I want to assume you mean height from the earth's surface. If my interpretation is correct. It mean h = R. Substitute this in (7).
g' = 9.8R^2(R + R)^2
g' = 9.8*(R/2R)^2
g' = 9.8*0.25
g' = 2.45 m/s2.
Gravity at the required height is 2.45 m/s2.
