Answer:
about 9.832 m/s2
In combination, the equatorial bulge and the effects of the surface centrifugal force due to rotation mean that sea-level gravity increases from about 9.780 m/s2 at the Equator to about 9.832 m/s2 at the poles, so an object will weigh approximately 0.5% more at the poles than at the Equator.

The value of acceleration due to gravity at the poles are 9.84/sec²
the value of acceleration due to gravity at the equator of the earth 9.83m/sec²
the value of acceleration due to gravity at the centre of the Earth is zero.
Explanation:
- the acceleration due to gravity is different for different places on the earth. This is due to the the difference between the distance from the centre of the earth.
- however if we go underground then the value of the acceleration due to gravity decreases due to decrease in the mass of the corresponding layer.
- Hence the poles being closer to the the centre of the earth has more acceleration due to gravity than the equator of the Earth and the acceleration due to gravity at the centre of the Earth is equal to zero
