Answer:
At the centre of Earth, the force due to upper half of the Earth will cancel the force due to lower half. ... Therefore, when F=0, then g has to be 0. Thus, the value of g is zero at the centre of Earth.
9.8 m/s^2
where d represents the distance from the center of the object to the center of the earth. In the first equation above, g is referred to as the acceleration of gravity. Its value is 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth. That is to say, the acceleration of gravity on the surface of the earth at sea level is 9.8 m/s^2.
