why is the weight of a body more at the pole than at the equator of the earth ??​

Sagot :

  • At pole the gravitation is more than that of equator .

And according to newtons second law

Force=Mass×Acceleration

And

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto F\propto a[/tex]

  • Hence force varies directly with acceleration hence weight will be more .

[tex]\boxed{ \rm \green{ Answer:-}}[/tex]

At equators,the radius of the earth is the greatest at the poles whereas at the equator,it is the least.

Due to this the value of g is greatest at poles and least at the equator of the earth.

Therefore,a body weight more at the poles and less at the equator of the earth.
