Take the effect of bulging of earth and its rotation in account. Consider the following statements :
(A) There are points outside the earth where the value of g is equal to its value at the equator.
(B) There are points outside the earth where the value of g is equal to its value at the poles.

Explain the variation of g with altitude.
A person whose mass is 100 kg travels from Earth to Mars in a spaceship. Neglect all other objects in the sky and take acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth and Mars as 10 m/s2 and 4 m/s2 respectively. Identify from the below figures, the curve that fits best for the weight of the passenger as a function of time.
