The weight of a body at the poles is greater than the weight at the equator. Is it the actual weight or the apparent weight we are talking about? Does your answer depend on whether only the earth's rotation is taken into account or the flattening of the earth at the poles is also taken into account?

Explanation:

  • (a)  It is the actual weight of the body we are talking about. It is actual weight of an object at a particular place either at the equator or at the poles.
  • (b)  The above answer is based only on taking the flattening of the earth at the poles into account.  If we take the earth’s rotation into account, then we should consider about the apparent weight of the body.  
  • The change in weight of the body is due to centrifugal force caused due to rotation of earth.
