Question

The value of acceleration due to gravity of earth :
(a) is the same on equator and poles
(b) is the least on poles
(c) is the least on equator
(d) increases from pole to equator

Answer 1

Acceleration due to gravity is zero at the centre of the earth. The value of g is least at the equator and maximum at the poles. It means the value of acceleration due to gravity increases as we go from the equator to the poles.
