The answer is #"option (a)"#

The equation for #g# is

#g=(GM)/R^2#

#g'=(GM)/(R+h)^2#

#(g')/g=R^2/(R+h)^2#

#(g')/g=R^2(R+h)^(-2)#

#=(1+h/R)^-2#

#=(1-2h/R)#

#g'=g(1-2h/R)#

The weight is

#w=mg'=mg(1-2h/R)#

so,

#(dw)/dh=-(2mg)/R#

Therefore,

The weight varies as #h^0#

The answer is #"option (a)"#
