At what depth the weight of a body becomes half the weight on the surface of earth given R 6400 km?
Hence, depth at which acceleration due to gravity is half will be – 3200 km.
At what distance from the center of earth the weight of any body becomes half?
Thus, at the height of 2650.96 km the weight of the body becomes half the weight at the surface of the earth.
What is the weight of body at the center of the earth?
zero
Thus, weight is zero where the acceleration due to gravity is zero. Hence, the weight of the body placed at the center of the earth is zero.
What will be the weight of a body at the Centre of the earth Why?
The weight of a body at the centre of earth is zero because value of g is zero.
At what depth below the surface of the earth the value of G becomes 25\% of its value on the surface of the earth?
Therefore, at height 6400 km, the acceleration due to gravity is 25\% of the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the earth.
At what depth from the surface of earth the acceleration?
At the height of 100 km from the surface of the Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is the same as at a depth 200 km below the surface of Earth with the Radius of Earth as 6400 km.
What is the radius at the Centre of Earth?
The Earth’s equatorial radius a, or semi-major axis, is the distance from its center to the equator and equals 6,378.1370 km (3,963.1906 mi).
What will be your weight at the Centre of the earth if the earth were a hollow sphere?
If earth were a hollow sphere, gravitational field intensity at any point inside the earth would be zero.
What is the weight of the body at the center of the earth Class 11?
Thus, there is no gravitational acceleration at the center of the earth. But we have seen that gr=0m/s2. Therefore, W=0N. Thus, at the center of the earth, the body has no weight.
What happens to your weight at the center of the earth?
The weight of the body at the centre of the earth will be zero since acceleration due to gravity at the centre is zero.
At what depth below surface of earth valueof g becomes 25 of it’s value on the surface of earth radius 6400km?
=>h=(3/4)Re=(3/4)×6400=4800km. ANS. 4800 km.
