Variation of g with altitude:- g' = g(1- 2h/R), if h<<R. Here R is the radius of earth and h is
at the depth d.
Variation with latitude:At poles:- = 90, g' = g
At equator:- = 0, g' = g (1-2R/g)
Here is the angular velocity.

or, ve = 2gR = gD
Here R is the radius of earth and D is the diameter of the earth.
Relation between escape velocity ve and orbital velocity v0 :- v0= ve/2 (if h<<R)
Time period of Satellite:- Time period of a satellite is the time taken by the satellite to
complete one revolution around the earth.
T = 2(R+h)3/GM = (2/R)(R+h)3/g
If h<<R, T = 2R/g
