    Acceleration due to gravity is g on the surface of the earth. Then the value of the acceleration due to gravity at a height of 32 km above earths surface is: (Assume radius of earth to be 6400 km)

    A)  0.99 g                                  

    B)  0.8 g     

    C)         1.01 g                  

    D)         0.9 g

    E)  9 g                                        

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[g=\frac{g}{{{\left( 1+\frac{h}{{{R}_{e}}} \right)}^{2}}}=\frac{g}{{{\left( 1+\frac{32}{6400} \right)}^{2}}}=0.99\,g\]
