Answer:
YES
Explanation:
weight of body(W) = (GMm)/(r+h)²
where,
G = Gravitational constant = 6.6743 × 10⁺¹¹ m³⋅kg⁻¹⋅s⁻²
M = mass of earth = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg
m = mass of body
r = radius of earth = 6.371 × 10⁶ m
h = height of body above ground
from the above formula, we can say
W(weight of body) inversely proportional to h(height of body above ground
)
so, as weight of a body decrease with increase in the distance from the earth surface
