What effect will be on acceleration due to gravity if radius of the earth is decreased?
Answers
✍️The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Earth can change in various ways as the earth shrinks.
☑️If you look up at the rate of change of g with respect to decrease in R the radius of Earth, it will vary as 1/Radius of the old value ;
➡️So the acceleration due to gravity increases with reduction in radius.
☑️If you also consider the change in spin of the Earth as radius decreases the spinning velocity will increase due to shrinkage .
➡️Therefore the centrifugal pull of the earth will increase and then the g(effective) value should decrease-
✍️As the correction due to spin velocity is not substantial the earlier rate of increase(in 1) due to reduction in R will predominate over it and
✍️A Net increase in g-value is expected on the surface of the earth..

your answer is____________
The effect will be on acceleration due to gravity if radius of the earth is decreased Earth can change in various ways as the earth shrinks.What effect will be on acceleration due to gravity if radius of the earth is decreased maximum at equator and minimum at the poles.The effect of rotation of the Earth on the value of g at the equator is maximum.
hope it helps you:)
