Problem

An object registers a weight of

800\,\text{N}

at the poles where the value of

g

9.83\,\text{m/s}^2

. At the equator,

g

9.78\,\text{m/s}^2

. a. (i) Calculate the mass of the object. b. (ii) Find its weight at the equator. c. (iii) Will its mass change on moving from the poles to the equator? Give a reason.
