Explanation:
Variation of g due to Shape of Earth
As the earth is an oblate spheroid, its radius near the equator is more than its radius near poles. Since for a source mass, the acceleration due to gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the earth, it varies with latitude due to the shape of the earth.

Answer:
The value of g is independent of the mass of the object and only dependent upon location - the planet the object is on and the distance from the center of that planet.
