hey friend,
Acceleration due to the earth's gravity is zero at the centre of the Earth because at that point the mass of the earth is equally distributed in all directions, so pulling equally in all directions for a net zero pull.
As the distance from the centre decreases, the acceleration due to gravity also decreases.
At the centre the distance is zero, hence gravity is zero.

Answer:
please mark me brainliest
Step-by-step explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity is given as
g =
GM
R2
At the centre of the Earth, the mass under
consideration is zero.
i.e. M = O
∴ g = 0
Hence, acceleration due to gravity, at the centre
of the earth, is zero.
