Question:
If a girl reached the north poles of the earth, then her weight increases or decreases?
Answer:
The acceleration due to gravity is slightly less at the equator than at the poles. We know that the mass of any object is the same throughout. However, weight which is
actually mass * acceleration due to gravity which is m * g. In this the value of g varies due to gravitational force.
As the value of g is slightly more in the poles, the girls weight would slightly increase at the poles.
