Answer:
Explanation:Gravity Changes with Altitude. Gravity changes with altitude. The gravitational force is proportional to 1/R2, where R is your distance from the center of the Earth. Here is an example: The radius of the Earth at the equator is 6400 kilometers.
The acceleration g varies by about 1/2 of 1 percent with position on Earth's surface, from about 9.78 metres per second per second at the Equator to approximately 9.83 metres per second per second at the poles.
