For example, the value of g on this planet is dependent upon the mass of the earth and the distance the object is from the center of the earth. g varies inversely with the distance from the center of the earth See: http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/circles/U6L3e.html As you’ve implied, the calculation of gravity is more complex than is generally assumed.
