    A body weighs 72 N on the surface of the earth. What is the gravitational force on it, at a height equal to half the radius of the earth?
    (A)48 N
    (B)32 N
    (C)30 N
    (D)24 N
    digAnsr:   B
    Ans : `` w_{s}=mg_{s}=72\,N ``
    `` w_{h}=mg_{h}=\frac{mg_{s}}{\left(1+\frac{h}{R}\right)^{2}} ``
    `` =\frac{72\,N}{\left(1+\frac{R /2}{2}\right)} ``
    `` =\frac{72}{9 /4} ``
    `` w_{h}=32\,N ``
