The weight w (in N) of an object h meters above the surface of Earth is w
Question:
The weight w (in N) of an object h meters above the surface of Earth is w = r2w (r + h)2, where r is the radius of Earth and w0 is the weight of the object at sea level. Given that r = 6380 km, if an object weighs 200 N at sea level, for what altitudes is its weight less than 100 N?
