Problem

A body of mass mm is taken (i) to a depth dd below Earth’s surface and (ii) to a height hh above the surface, where h=d≪REh=d\ll R_{\rm E}. Let WdW_d and WhW_h be its weights at the two locations. Which statement is correct? (a) Wd=WhW_d = W_h (b) Wd>WhW_d > W_h (c) Wd<WhW_d < W_h (d) The relation depends on mm
