The answer is "option (a)"option (a)

Explanation:

The equation for gg is

g=(GM)/R^2g=GMR2

g'=(GM)/(R+h)^2

(g')/g=R^2/(R+h)^2

(g')/g=R^2(R+h)^(-2)

=(1+h/R)^-2

=(1-2h/R)

g'=g(1-2h/R)

The weight is

w=mg'=mg(1-2h/R)

so,

(dw)/dh=-(2mg)/R

Therefore,

The weight varies as h^0

The answer is "option (a)"
