Question

At what height from the surface of earth the gravitation potential and the value of g are - 5.4 × 10 7 J k g - 2 and 6.0 m s - 2 respectively? Take the radius of earth as 6400 km :, 2600 km, 1600 km, 1400 km, 2000 km

V = G M R + h = - 5.4 × 10 7 g = G M R + h 2 = 6 ∴ 5.4 6 × 10 7 = R + h ∴ 9 × 10 6 = 6.4 × 10 6 + h ∴ h = 2600 k m
