Explanation:
As the earth rotates, a body placed on its surface moves along the circular path and hence experiences centrifugal force, due to it, the apparent weight of the body decreases.
When the earth is rotating, all the objects tend to experience a centrifugal force that won't act in the direction of gravity....Variation of g due to Rotation of Earth.Position at the Earth's
SurfaceValue of θ (in °)
Relation between g and g'
At Equator 0g′= g – Rω2
At Pole 90g' = g

Answer:
As we move from the equator to the poles the distance of the point on the surface of the earth from the centre of the earth decreases. Hence the acceleration due to gravity increases. Variation in acceleration due to gravity Due to Latitude of the Place: ... Latitude of the equator is 0° and that of poles is 90°.
