At what height above the earth's surface is the value of $'g'$ is same as in a $200\, km$ deep mine ........ $km$

A

$50$

B

$100$

C

$150$

D

$400$

Solution

$\mathrm{g}\left(1-\frac{2 \mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{R}}\right)=\mathrm{g}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{h}^{\prime}}{\mathrm{R}}\right)$

Above surface $\quad$ Below surface

$\Rightarrow \frac{2 \mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}^{\prime}}{\mathrm{R}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{h}=\frac{\mathrm{h}^{\prime}}{2}=\frac{200}{2}=100 \mathrm{km}$
