Question

Amit buys few grams of gold at the poles as per the instructions of one of his friends . he hands over the same when he meets him at the equator. will the friends agree with the weight of gold bought ? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The weight of an object depends upon the gravitational force exerted by the surface of the earth on the object.

W=g x m

The gravitational force is greater on the poles than the equator. Hence, the weight of the gold would have reduced slightly when Amit brought it to the equator.

SYOURANSWER

:-

Since, W = mg

And, the value of g is greater at poles than at equator.

Therefore, gold at the equator weighs less than at the poles.

Hence, Amit's friend will not agree with the weight of the gold bought.
