Question

the weight of a body is minimum at the poles true or fals​

Answer 1

Answer:

false statement

Explanation:

this is because at pole no influence of rotation of earth is felt but at equator due to rotation of earth acceleration due to gravity is reduced

so correct statement is weight of the body is minimum at equator

Answer 2

The answer is 'false.'

Correct Statement

The weight of a body is measured to be maximum at the poles.

Reason

• The weight refers to the pull of gravitational force on the body.

• Since the equator is directly on the center of the earth, the gravitational force working on the equator is minimum.

• Since the poles are far away from the center of the earth, the maximum gravitational pull is exerted on the poles by the gravitational field of the earth.

• Therefore, the weight is maximum at the poles.
