The value of g is mainly considered 9.8m/s^2 but changes ever so slightly with points if observed on different places terrestrially on earth, also due to envoirmental factors.

By looking at the equation F=Gm /r^{2}

Since r (Distance between the point on the surface of earth to the center of the earth) in the denominator of the above equation,

when r increases the value of g will decrease.

When r decreases the value of g will increase.

Since the value of r at the top of the Mount Everest than at Goa beach,

gravitational force at the top of the Mount Everest is smaller than the gravitational force at Goa beach.
