Where is it more profitable to purchase one kg of sugar at poles or equator and how?

Answer 1

I would say that buying sugar at the equator is more profitable as gravitational pull is less at the equator (you can say almost zero) as compared to the poles (where the gravitational pull is the highest) , so sugar will weigh more at the poles than at the equator. Therefore, we can say that the price of sugar will be more at the poles than at the equator. The sugar will WEIGH less at the equator , so the price will also be less there. Hence, buying sugar at the equator is more profitable.

NOTE: SUGAR WILL HAVE SAME MASS AT THE EQUATOR AS WELL AS AT THE POLES.

====================================

Beautiful. But, since the sell-price of anything reflects both the cost of producing it AND the cost of transporting it to market, have you considered the cost of shipping sugar to the equator from where it grows, compared to the cost of shipping sugar to the poles from where it grows ? When I worked briefly in an industrial complex in northern Alaska ten years ago, the price of a gallon of gasoline there was already over $6 .

By the way ... before I go ... the force of gravity at the poles is not "almost zero", and the apparent weight of an object at the pole compared to its weight at the equator is greater on only the order of 1 percent, on account of both the greater radius and the effect of Earth's rotation at the equator.
