Correct Answer: At poles
Solution : The Correct Option is : At poles
The North Pole and the South Pole are where the Earth's gravitational field is strongest. Because the Earth is not a perfect sphere and the distance to Earth is less at the poles, centrifugal forces, which operate against gravity, are negligible at the poles and are greatest near the equator.
