    B Equator Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Centre of Earth Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Surface Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The gravitational field strength is maximum at the poles. This is due to the Earth's shape being an oblate spheroid, where the poles are closer to the Earth's center than the equator, thereby experiencing a stronger gravitational pull.
