A tunnel is dug along a chord of the earth at a perpendicular distance R2 from the earth’s centre. The wall of the tunnel may be assumed to be frictionless. A particle is released from one end of the tunnel. The pressing force by the particle on the wall and the acceleration of the particle varies with x (distance of the particle from the centre) according to:

An object is weighed at the equator by a beam balance and a spring balance, giving readings Wb and Ws, respectively. It is again weighed in the same manner at the north pole giving readings of Wb' and Ws', respectively. Assume that intensity of earth gravitational field is the same every where on the earth’s surface and that the balances are quite sensitive.
