Question

The value of ‘g’ is greater at poles and lesser at equator of earth.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

1. The distance between the poles and the earth's center is shorter than that between the equator and the earth's center.
2. Thus, the gravitational force at the poles is more than the gravitational force at the equator.
3. As a result, the gravitational acceleration at the poles is larger than at the equator.

Hence, the given statement is true.
