What is weight of the body at the center of the earth?
Zero
What will happen to mass and weight of a body on earth if suddenly gravitational attraction of the earth disappeared?
Your mass would be unaffected, it is simply to do with the atoms in your body. Your weight would be reduced to zero as that is simply how much your body is affected by gravity.
Is the weight of a body constant at all places on the earth?
The weight of a person is not constant at all places on the Earth. The weight becomes zero at the center of the earth or far away from the Earth.
What would be the weight in kilograms of a 50 kg body?
The weight of a body depends upon the force of gravity acting upon that body. A 50 kg body will have a weight that is 50 times that of a 1 kg mass. The weight of the body will be different on earth, on the moon and in deep space (zero).
What is the value of Earth's gravitational field at the center of the Earth?
In the cavity at the center of the Earth, your weight would be zero, because you would be pulled equally by gravity in all directions. - The gravitational field of Earth at its center is zero.
Can a body have zero mass and zero weight?
no
As you get farther away from the earth what will happen to your weight?
It will steadily decrease as you move farther from the Earth's center of gravity. Eventually one's "Earth weight" can reach zero when the gravity of another body, such as the Moon or Sun, completely counteracts it. *In orbit, or freefall, measured weight is zero. In outer space, objects are always in "microgravity" having imperceptible weight, unless they approach close to another large body.
At what height from the earth the weight of an object become half of the weight on earth?
zero
What happens to the mass of a body when it is at the center of the earth?
Assuming that you could get the mass there and intact, the mass of the body would not change. Its weight, however would be zero. Depending on the matter used, the volume might be considerably reduced due to pressure.
Where does a body have least weight equator or earth centre?
In the middle of the earth is where an object has the lightest weight. The weight is zero. The reason is that the mass of the object is pulled equally in all directions so all the forces cancel out.
What is weight of earth?
AS WE KNOW, that there is the force of gravity at the center of Earth, if every part or portion of earth has its weight then net weight of the earth will be zero........
Is it possible that a body may have non zero mass but zero weight?
If no large body was influencing your environment, you would be floating (space is as close as we've gotten to such a phenomenon).
