Question: A point J has geodetic coordinates: ( 4 5 deg 2 2 5 8 , 1 4 7 deg 4 2 1 2

A point J has geodetic coordinates: (45\deg 2258,147\deg 4212,45.226m), orthometric
height of 49.621m, height anomaly of 4.422m, and a measured gravity value of
980.641026 Gal. Point K has the same coordinates as J but lies on the geoid. Ignoring the
contributions of the deflection of the vertical:
a. What is the gravity disturbance at point J?
b. What is the Free-Air gravity anomaly at point J?
c. Using Bruns formula, what is the disturbing potential at point K?
