Is the weight of a parachute greater at the beginning of the descent?
If you are taking the variation of 'g' with altitude, then its weight is lesser, not greater, at the beginning of the descent. But for small heights, The variation of g is negligible, so its weight remains the same
Does the rotation of the earth affect azimuth and altitude?
The variation of the apparent azimuth and altitude of everything we see in the sky is the result of Earth's rotation.
What is geopotential altitude?
Geopotential altitude is a measure of height above a reference level in the Earth's atmosphere that takes into account the variation of gravitational acceleration with altitude. It provides a more accurate representation of the vertical position of an object in the atmosphere compared to geometric altitude, which does not account for variations in gravity. Geopotential altitude is commonly used in aviation and meteorology to standardize altitude measurements.
Does haiti have four seasons?
There is really only 1 season in Haiti. The climate is tropical, with some variation depending on altitude.
How much does one liter of diesel weigh?
0.832 kg.. Obviously it will change minutely with a variation in cetance number and altitude.
What has the author Peter J G Forster written?
Peter J. G. Forster has written: 'Circulating immune complexes (125 I-C1q binding activity) in rheumatoid arthritis' 'Work at high altitude' -- subject(s): Altitude, Influence of, Effect of environment on, Human beings, Influence of Altitude
Did Beethoven write a piece of music including theme and variation?
His Sonata in G Opus 14 No.2 has a theme and variation in the Second Movement
What is the Difference between geopotential altitude and geometric altitude?
Altitude in an aircraft is generally measured by the hydrostatic equation: p=rho*g*h, where p is the pressure at the point of measurement, rho is the density at the point of measurement, g is the acceleration due to gravity at the point and h is the height from a reference to that point (the reference is generally taken as sea level). Aircrafts use the hydrostatic equation to determine the height/ altitude because pressure can be easily measured with a pitot tube that planes have. So using a pitot tube the airplanes measure the pressure and with that they can put it into the equation and solve for the height. However, gravity is not the same at different altitudes and changes with respect to the altitude. It is very difficult for an airplane to measure gravity in the air. Therefore airplanes generally measure geopotential altitude. The geopotential altitude uses gravity at sea level and takes it to be constant. Whereas geometric altitude uses gravity at the point of measurement. Therefore P = rho*g0*h(geopotential) where g0 is the gravity at sea-level and h(geopotential) is the geopotential altitude and P=rho*g*h(geometric) where g is the gravity at the point of measurement and h(geometric) is the geometric altitude or the actual height above sea-level Notice that the pressure and rho are common in both equations -by floyd617
How altitude vary with gravity?
It is the other way round - gravity varies with altitude. In other words, you should consider altitude the independent variable. At a greater altitude, there is less gravitational force. This is explained by the equation - F(g) = G(m1m2)/(r^2) where G = constant, m1 and m2 = mass, F(g) = force due to gravity, and r = distance from center of mass. The altitude difference covered by humans daily (high buildings, hills) makes only a small, probably negligable difference in force due to gravity.

What cat breed starts with the letter g?
German Rex, a variation of the Devon Rex.
At what altitude above the earth surface the value of 'g' reduces to half of its value at the surface?
The gravitational acceleration, g, decreases with altitude according to the inverse square law. At an altitude equal to the radius of the Earth (about 6371 km), the value of g would reduce to half of its surface value. This is because the gravitational attraction between the Earth and an object weakens as the distance between them increases.
