Is there any meaning of “weight of the earth”?
An apple falls from a tree. An insect in the apple finds that the earth is falling towards it with an acceleration g. Who exerts the force needed to accelerate the earth with this acceleration g?
The acceleration of moon with respect to earth is 0⋅0027 m s−2 and the acceleration of an apple falling on earth' surface is about 10 m s−2. Assume that the radius of the moon is one fourth of the earth's radius. If the moon is stopped for an instant and then released, it will fall towards the earth. The initial acceleration of the moon towards the earth will be
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.
Find the height over the Earth's surface at which the weight of a body becomes half of its value at the surface.
Find the acceleration due to gravity in a mine of depth 640 m if the value at the surface is 9.800 m s−2. The radius of the earth is 6400 km.
A particle is fired vertically upward from earth's surface and it goes up to a maximum height of 6400 km. Find the initial speed of particle.
Explain the variation of g with latitude.

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.
