Question

One goes from the centre of the earth to a distance two third the radius of the earth. The acceleration due to gravity is highest at, the centre of the earth, a distance half the radius of the earth, a distance one-third of the radius of the earth, a distance two-third of the radius of the earth

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

The acceleration due to gravity at a depth d inside the earth is g ′ = g 1 - d R = g R - d R = g r R where, R - d = r = distance of a place from the centre of earth, therefore, g ′ ∝ r
