પૃથ્વીની સપાટીથી $h$ ઊંચાઇ પર ગુરુત્વપ્રવેગ અને $x$ ઊંડાઇ પર ગુરુત્વપ્રવેગ સમાન હોય,તો

A

$x = h$

B

$x = 2h$

C

$x = \frac{h}{2}$

D

$x = {h^2}$

(AIEEE-2005)

Solution

(b) The value of $g$  at the height h from the surface of earth $g' = g\,\left( {1 – \frac{{2h}}{R}} \right)$

The value of g at depth $x$ below the surface of earth $g' = g\,\left( {1 – \frac{x}{R}} \right)$

These two are given equal, hence $\left( {1 – \frac{{2h}}{R}} \right) = \left( {1 – \frac{x}{R}} \right)$

On solving, we get $x = 2h$
