Discuss the variation of g with depth and derive the necessary formula. OR Show that the gravitational acceleration due to the earth at a depth d from its surface is g_d= g[1- frac(d)(R)] , where R is the radius of the earth and g is the gravitional acceleration at the earth's surface. OR Discus the variation of acceleration due to gravity with depth 'd' below the surface of the earth OR Derive an expression for acceleration due to gravity at depth 'd' below the surface of earth

What is the variation in acceleration due to gravity with altitude? OR Derive an expression for the gravitational acceleration at an altitude h above the earth. OR Show that the gravitional acceleration at a height h above the surface of the earth is (in usual notations) g_h = g (frac(R)(R + h)^2)

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth varies

Let omega be the angular velocity of the earth's rotation about its axis. Assume that the acceleration due to gravity on the earth's surface has the same value at the equator and the poles. An object weighed at the equator gives the same reading as a reading taken at a depth d below earth's surface at a pole (dlt ltR) . the value of d is-
