How does the value of G change with the altitude above the surface of the earth ?? |

Answer» Gravity changes with altitude. as we know The gravitational force is proportional to 1/R2, where R is your DISTANCE from the center of the Earth. eg. The radius of the Earth at the equator is 6400 KILOMETERS. Let's SAY you were in a jet at the equator that was 40 kilometers high above the earth's surface. may be helpfull |
