Detailed Solution

The value of acceleration due to gravity will be maximum on the ground.
We know, acceleration due to gravity at the surface of a planet is,
= × MR2
At a height of h
= × M(R+h)2
It depends on the Universal Gravitation Constant (G), the mass of the planet (M), and the square of the sum of the height of the point of consideration and the radius of the planet (R). Acceleration due to the earth's gravity has a constant value of 9.8 m/s2 on the earth's surface. It is the maximum on the earth's surface and decreases with the increase in altitude.
