Explain, with reference to gravitational field lines, why the gravitational field near the surface of the Earth is approximately constant for small changes in height.
The detailed solution steps are locked. Click on the blue button to unlock them.
The change in height is negligible compared to the radius of the Earth, so, the spacing and direction of the field lines do not significantly change. Thus, the gravitational field strength, and hence the acceleration due to gravity remains approximately constant.
