Expert Answer
Let A be the point on the surface of the Earth and B be the point at an altitude h.
Let M be the mass of the Earth and R be the radius of the Earth.
Consider the Earth as a spherical shaped body.
The acceleration due to gravity at point A on the surface of the Earth is,
Let the body be placed at B at a height h from the surface of the Earth.
The acceleration due to gravity at B is,
Dividing eqn (1) by (2), we get,
The value of acceleration due to gravity decreases with increase in height above the surface of the Earth.
