There are several African nations that have names which starts with a g. Some of these countries include Gabon, Guinea Bissau, Ghana, Gambia and many more.

Is the maximum value g at equator?

Yes, the maximum value of acceleration due to gravity (g) is at the equator because the centrifugal force due to the Earth's rotation reduces the effective gravitational force. This results in a maximum g value at the equator compared to other latitudes.


What country that starts with G does not use the metric system?

Goat Gorilla and girl you are so thumd and wikied to not know that MAFUETING! and WIKIED!


What is the value of g when Equator moves towards pole?

The value of acceleration due to gravity (g) decreases as you move from the Equator towards the poles due to the centrifugal force caused by the Earth's rotation. At the Equator, this force counteracts some of the gravitational force, resulting in a lower g value compared to the poles.


What place starts with a G?

Goldfish, guppy, gorilla, gazelle, gerbil, goat, goose, etc....


Why the motion of simple pendulum is slow at equator?

A pendulum will swing slowest when closest to the equator. Why is this? The time period, T, of the swing of a pendulum is given by: T=2π√(l/g) where l is the length of the pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity. Because the Earth is spinning, there is a bulge at the equator and the poles are slightly flattened. Hence on the equator the radius to the centre of the earth is greater than the radius at the poles. The equatorial radius is 6378.1km while the polar radius is 6356.8 km The value of g at the Earth's surface relates to the values of the Earth's radius, r, at that point using an inverse square law ie g is proportional to 1/r2 At the North Pole, g is about 9.83m/s2, while at the equator, g is smaller, at only 9.79m/s2 . So the period of a pendulum will be longer (i.e. slowest) at the equator than at the pole
