A body weighs $$500 \mathrm{~N}$$ on the surface of the earth. At what distance below the surface of the earth it weighs $$250 \mathrm{~N}$$ ? (Radius of earth, $$\mathrm{R}=6400 \mathrm{~km}$$ )
The masses and radii of the moon and the earth are $$\mathrm{M_1, R_1}$$ and $$\mathrm{M_2, R_2}$$ respectively. Their centres are at a distance $$\mathrm{d}$$ apart. What should be the minimum speed with which a body of mass '$$m$$' should be projected from a point midway between their centres, so as to escape to infinity?
The average density of the earth is [g is acceleration due to gravity]
The depth from the surface of the earth of radius $$\mathrm{R}$$, at which acceleration due to gravity will be $$60 \%$$ of the value on the earth surface is
