• The formula relating gravity and altitude is as follows:

$g = \frac{1}{R^2}$

• It means that the value of g decreases when the value of altitude increases, whereas increases when the value of altitude decreases.
• Thus the given statement is inferred to be false and the correct statement is "The value of 'g' decreases with altitude."
