which of the following statement is true regarding acceleration due to gravity?
a)it keeps on increasing from north to south pole b)it keeps on increasing from South to North Pole c)it increases from poles to the equator d)it decreases from pole to the equator
Answers
Answer:
The correct answer of this question is option D,it decreases from pole to the equator.
Explanation:
Although the amount of gravitational force is constant everywhere in the our planet but still the gravitational force is weaker in the equator regions.
Because,our earth is spherical and a centrifugal force is created which decreases the amount of gravitational pull in the equator regions.
Answer:
It decreases from pole to the equator.
Explanation:
Even though the force of gravity seems to be constant in the planet, it is still weaker along the regions of the equator. This is because of the spherical nature of the earth surrounded by the centrifugal force that is formed and which reduces the gravitation amount along the regions surrounding the equator. The gravitational acceleration across the equatorial line was high and created more poles that were directly facing the earth.
