Where is the value of gravitational acceleration the highest?
A.
At the poleB.
In geocentricC.
Above the surfaceD.
Above the groundAnswer & Solution
Answer:
At the pole
Solution:
The value of gravitational
acceleration (g) is highest at the poles and minimum
at the equator. It can be
realized from the formula g = GM/R² which is used to calculate gravitational
acceleration. Therefore, gravitational acceleration is inversely proportional
to the radius of Earth.
