Question

which of the following statements 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
-) It increases from poles to the equator (d) It decreases from poles to the equator​

Answer 1

Answer:

it increase from pole to the equator

Answer 2

ANSWER:

The statement 'it decreases from poles to equator' is true regarding acceleration due to 'gravity'.

EXPLANATION:

The acceleration because of gravity is main criteria in physics. The value of acceleration due to gravity is about 9.832 m/s at the poles region to 9.780 m/sec square at equator.

Hence 'acceleration due to gravity' is more at poles than equator. It becomes zero in the 'centre of the earth'. This means that gravity is 'inversely proportional' to the 'centre of earth' and directly proportional to poles.
