Question

How does the weight of a body vary in a journey from equator to the pole?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Since there is more centrifugal force at the equator to cancel gravity, your overall weight at the equator versus at the poles is even less. The centrifugal force on your body at the equator is 0.034 m/s2 times the mass of your body. The centrifugal force at the poles is zero.

Answer 2

Answer:

Gravity is more at poles in comparison to the equator

i.e. At equator = 9.780 m/s^2(approx)

     At poles     = 9.832 m/s^2(approx)

And we know that weight is m*g (where m=mass of body )

Since the mass of any body remains constant therefore the weight of the body only varies with the value of g which is more at poles in comparison to equator  

Thus weight of body is more at poles then the weight at equator......
