No, there are slight variations, due to (a) the fact that some points are closer to Earth's center (a.1, you may be on a mountain, and a.2, the poles are closer to the Earth's center), (b) the centrifugal pseudoforce, which gets stronger as you approach the equator, and (c) any gravitational anomaly caused by an uneven distribution of masses.

How would the value of g and G be affected if mass of the earth becomes four times?
G would remain the same, it's the gravitational constant which is the same everywhere in the universe. g would increase by 4 times, assuming that the radius of the earth didn't increase.
Is there no gravity in Arizona?
As far as we're able to tell, gravity is present everywhere in the Universe. It's certainly present everywhere on Earth, and the gravitational forces that attract the earth and any object on it toward each other have essentially the same strength, no matter where on earth the object happens to be.
What is caused by the same force that caused object to fall toward the surface of earth?
Sun
Does an object weigh anything while in a vacuum?
Yes it wheighs the same as on the earth's surface
You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Yes, because you attract the earth with the same gravitational force that the earth attracts you.
Does the value of 'g' remain same everywhere on earth?
G i.e force per unit mass on the earth surface......YES.because all calculation is approximately 10
Would there be winds if earths surface was the same temperature everywhere?
No, there would not be winds if the earth's surface was the same temperature everywhere. The reason why is because during the day the land heats up faster than the water.
Do sunbeams strike the surface of the earth at the same angle everywhere?
Sunbeams do NOT strike the Earth's surface at the same angle. Like dusk some places have an angular strike during the winter months. This is the main reason we have seasons.
What is the value of gravitational constant in the surface of moon?
The gravitational constant "G" is the same everywhere. The force of gravity on the moon, expressed as the acceleration of a falling body is 1.62 metres/sec2. compared with 9.81 m/s2 on the earth.
What is the gravity at Bermuda triangle?
The gravity at the Bermuda triangle is exactly the same as the rest of the earth, affected only by the phases of the moon, exactly the same as the rest of the earth.
The line on surface of earth joining the points where h has same value is what?
The answer depends on what h is supposed to represent.
Why is the big dipper so huge near Malaysia?
The big dipper is the same size from everywhere on Earth, because everywhere on Earth is the same distance from it.
How many pounds of force is 30 G?
The "G" is not a unit of force. If it were, then everybody would have the same weight, since the value of gravity is virtually the same everywhere on earth.
Is the sequence of earth's layers the same everywhere on the planet?
yes, the layers beneath earths surface are in the same sequence throughout earth, although certain parts of certain layers may be wider in certain places or slimmer, but they stay in the same sequence
Why the force of gravity is not exactly the same everywhere on earth's surface?
The earth is not perfect sphere therefore the radius differs from place to place and from Newton Gravitational law force is directly proportional to radius
Gravity moons surface is weaker than the earth surface fact or opainion?
Gravity behaves exactly the same on the moon as it does on earth. The formula that's used to calculate the gravitational force between two masses is the same formula everywhere. Using that formula, it's easy to calculate that any object weighs about 1/6th as much on the moon as it weighs on the earth.
What kind of gravity does Saturn have?
At the surface, it's about the same as the Earth's . You get a bit of variation in the value given, but, at the equator, it's about 1.065 times the Earth's. It is about 0.92 times the Earth's gravity, if you take into account the effect of the planet's rotation.
