CBSE Class 12-science Answered

my question is from the topic gravitation.But in the chapter and topic column there was no such option.Without filling that it was not proceding, so i have registered that name. 
My question is,
I read a sentence that, Gravitational acceleration decreases with increase in hight and depth.but why depth?why dont we measure depth with negative sign convension?

The expression for acceleration due to gravity at a depth d is,

gd = g ( 1 - d/R)

From the above expression it is clear that the value of acceleration due to gravity decrease with increase in depth.

The number of moles in an elemental sample is just the ratio of the mass m to atomic mass 4. n= A The number of protons N, in an elemental sample is Z (atomic number) times the number of moles of Avogadro's number NA N=ZnN P A Copper has an atomic mass of 63.5 g/mole and 29 protons per atom. If such an atom were neutral, then it would have as many protons as electrons. If you remove electrons from a neutral state, then you get a net positive charge. Given a 54 gram ball of copper with a net charge of 2.2 µC, what fraction of the copper's electrons have been removed?
