Answer:
The weight of an object is minimum when it isplaced at the center of the earth because whenan object is in the center, experiences gravitational pull from all directions & the weightof an object maximum on earth is on the poles. That is why at poles body will weigh Max.

If you weighed 100 pounds at the north pole on a spring scale, at the equator you wouldweigh 99.65 pounds, or 5.5 ounces less.
