Answer:

The weight is more at the poles of the earth because, the earth is an oblate spheroid and the gravity acting on poles is higher than gravity acting at equator, so we weigh more at the poles.

Answer:

The effective acceleration of gravity at the poles is 980.665 cm/sec/sec while at the equator it is 3.39 cm/sec/sec less due to the centrifugal force. If you weighed 100 pounds at the north pole on a spring scale, at the equator you would weigh 99.65 pounds, or 5.5 ounces less.

                                             or                                                                  

As the distance of the pole is less than the distance of the equator from the center of the earth, the force of attraction is higher on the body at poles than at the equator. Hence the weight of a body is greater at pole than at the equator.

                                                        or                                                                  

The value of acceleration due to gravity g is least at the equator and maximum at the poles. The reason for this is explained below : ... That's why, at poles, the value of g is greater as compared to the value of g at equator. As we know that weight of a body = mass of body X acceleration due to gravity

srry but the answer may be vary from class to class

hope this may helpful
