Problem

The gravitational potential at a point above the surface of earth is −5.12×107 J/kg-5.12 \times 10^7 \text{ J/kg} and the acceleration due to gravity at that point is 6.4 m/s26.4 \text{ m/s}^2 . Assume that the mean radius of earth to be 6400 km. The height of this point above the earth's surface is : (1) 1600 km (2) 540 km (3) 1200 km (4) 1000 km
