An astronaut on a strange planet finds that the acceleration due to gravity is twice that on the surface of the Earth. Which of the following could explain this?

Derive the equation for the variation of acceleration due to gravity $g$ with depth $d$ below the surface of the Earth.

The radius of the Earth is $6400 \,km$ and the acceleration due to gravity is $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$. For the weight of a body of mass $5 \,kg$ to be zero at the equator,the rotational angular velocity of the Earth must be (in $rad/s$):

If the mass of the Earth decreases by $25 \%$ and its radius increases by $50 \%$,then the acceleration due to gravity at its surface decreases by nearly ......... $\%$

$A$ uniform spherical planet (Radius $R$) has acceleration due to gravity at its surface $g$. Points $P$ and $Q$ located inside and outside the planet have acceleration due to gravity $g/4$. The maximum possible separation between $P$ and $Q$ is:
