Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity at a depth 'd' is given by g' = g(1 - d/R), where R is the radius of the Earth. If we go to the center of the Earth, the depth 'd' becomes exactly equal to R. Substituting d = R into the formula gives g' = g(1 - R/R) = g(1 - 1) = 0. So, gravity is zero at the core.
Explanation:
According to Coulomb's Law, the electrostatic force (F) between two point charges is inversely proportional to the square of the distance (r) between them (F ∝ 1/r²). If the distance is doubled (r becomes 2r), the new force F' ∝ 1/(2r)² = 1/4r². Thus, the force becomes one-fourth of its original value.
