Hi!
Im getting confused in solving this problem. I just can't pick out the correct formulae to solve it.
"At 45 degree latitude, the gravitational acceleration as a function of elevation "z" above sea level is given by
g=a-bz
where a=9.807 meter per second square and b=3.32x10^-6 s^-2.
Determine the height above the sea level where the weight of an object will decrease by 1 percent."
Thanks in advance
