Assume that if the earth were made of lead of relative density 11.3, then what would be the value of acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth if it were made of lead with a relative density of 11.3, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Density of Lead The density of lead can be calculated using the relative density (specific gravity) and the density of water. The formula for density is: \[ \rho = \text{Relative Density} \times \text{Density of Water} \] ...
