what is the value acceleration due to gravity under the surface of the earth?

OpenStudy (javk):

the same as above ground level

OpenStudy (alekos):

no. the acceleration slowly drops below the surface until you get to the centre where it's zero.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If so can we express its value in number?

OpenStudy (javk):

my bad...alekos is right

OpenStudy (alekos):

the value of the acceleration due to gravity depends on the distance from the centre of the earth
