Explanation:
Acceleration due to gravity also decreases with height and it also varies with latitude. ... The acceleration due to gravity decreases linearly with depth and at the center of earth it becomes zero which may seem to you counter-intuitive. But this phenomenon can be explained by the "shell theory" given by Sir Isaac Newton.

Answer:
The acceleration of an object changes with altitude. The change in gravitational acceleration with distance from the centre of Earth follows an inverse-square law. This means that gravitational acceleration is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the centre of Earth.
