Answer 2

The weight of the gold bought by Akhil reduces from 5 grams when he moves towards equator.

Some of the main reasons for this is:

• First, when the Earth rotate, equator spin very quickly that leads to increase in centrifugal force and this increase in centrifugal force reduces the gravitational effect as both forces cancel each other's effect.
• Second, the weight of the object is given by the formula

                                          $w=mg$

       which shows that there is direct relationship between gravity and weight.

• Third, there is a converse relation between earth's radius and acceleration due to gravity and is given by

                                          $g = 1/r²$

and radius of the earth increases towards the equator as compared to poles due to centrifugal force.

These are some of the reasons that led to decrease in weight of the object when it moves from poles to equator.
