Question

Solve any Three (3 marks Each)
Q.1 Discuss the variation of acceleration due to gravity with altitude
Q.2 Derive an expression for variation in gravitational acceleration of the earth with latitude
hich nace nn Farth's surface is the acceleration minimum and maximum? Why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.For an object placed at a height h, the acceleration due to gravity is less as compared to that placed on the surface. As depth increases, the value of acceleration due to gravity (g) falls. The value of g is more at equator and less at poles.
