The earth is actually bulged and not spherical. Imagine pulling the left and right sides of a globe. This shape is the actual shape of the earth. Due to this bulge , 'g' is least at the equator and maximum at the poles .

Hii dear,
◆ Factors that make *g* least at equator and most at poles are-
1. Equatorial radius of earth is maximum while that at poles is minimum.
2. Latitude at equator is zero as compared to 90° at the poles.
3. Centrifugal force cancel out gravity more at equator than the poles.
Hope that was useful...
