ramesh today asked his teacher why the value of gravitational acceleration is higher at the poles than at the equator. (a.) becouse the radius of the earth is less at the poles. (b.) becouse the radius of the earth is greater at the pole. (c.) becouse the radius of the earth is less at the equator. (d.) the gravitational acceleration at the poles and the equator remains the same.

Answer:
becouse the radius of the earth is less at the poles.
Explanation:
It is frequently stated that the value of the acceleration due to gravity at the pole is larger than at the equator because the poles are closer to the center of the earth due to the earth's oblateness. ... The measured value is larger because the earth's density is not uniform but increases toward the center.due to gravity at the pole is larger than at the equator
