Explanation:
a body weigh more at the equator since earth is not completely round it is an oblate spheroid – a sphere with a bulge around the equator. that is why the places at the equator are more in contact with the core rather than the places at the poles.

Explanation:
The force we exert perpendicular to the surface is constant. However, due to the rotation of the Earth a centripetal force causes a bulge at the equator. That is, the radius of the Earth is greater at the equator than at the poles.
