Here are the solutions to the problems:

11. The acceleration due to gravity at earth's surface is gg. The acceleration due to gravity at a height equal to the radius of earth from the surface is

Step 1: The acceleration due to gravity at a height hh above the Earth's surface is given by the formula:

g′=g(RR+h)2g' = g \left(\frac{R}{R+h}\right)^2

where RR is the radius of the Earth and gg is the acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface.

Step 2: In this problem, the height hh is equal to the radius of the Earth, so h=Rh = R. Substitute this into the formula:
