Question

Heyaa

The weight of an object is more atpolar region than in the equatorial region of the earth.
Justify this statement.

I dont want googled answers..

Dont dare spam!!!

Answer 1

Answer:-

      This is because earth is not perfectly spherical.so due to less radius on poles the gravity experienced is more as the surface is closer to the center of earth  and the weight of an object is more at polar region of the earth...........

      HOPE IT HELP YOU............

Answer 2

Hi mate here is ur query..

••••••••••••••••

Weight is defined as the force with which earth attracts towards it's centre.

W=mg

Weight= mass *acceleration due to gravity.

We know that our earth is not perfectly circle it has bulge at equator and it is flattened at poles. The acceleration due to gravity(g) is maximum at surface.

• The value of g at poles is 9.83m/s^2.

• The value of g at equator is 9.71m/s^2.

At equator the altitude increases as it has bulge and at pole it decreases because it is flattened.

The value of g increases as altitude decreases and decreases as altitude increases ( vise versa).

W = mg

Mass remains same at any point in the universe but as the value of g varies. The weight also changes.

The weight of any object is more at poles and less at equator.
