Description : Weight of a person at a height of 2R from the centre of the earth, where R is the radius of the earth- (1) remains same (2) becomes half (3) becomes twice (4) becomes one-fourth

Last Answer : (4) becomes one-fourth Explanation: The gravitational force is proportional to 1/R2, where R is the distance from the centre of the Earth. So at a height of 2R from the centre of the earth, the corresponding weight would be one-fourth of the original weight.
