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.
A body will have the least weight at the Earth's poles due to the effect of centrifugal force and the Earth's oblate spheroid shape. This is because the radius at the poles is slightly larger than at the equator, resulting in slightly weaker gravity.
The state with the least tangential speed as Earth rotates around its axis would be the one closest to the North or South Pole. At these locations, the circumference of the Earth is smaller, resulting in a slower tangential speed compared to states closer to the equator.
If we are talking about solar heating it warms mostly the equator. If we are talking about actual radiation we are least protected from it at the North and South pole. So even though the radiation itself may not be directed at the poles that is where a person would experience it the most.
The imaginary line is called the Arctic Circle. North of the Arctic Circle, in regions like northern Norway, Sweden, and Finland, the sun does not set for at least one day during the summer solstice in June.
Obvious Answer:People are born which gains weight! At least 100,000 kg is added on each year! How can you not realize that!It is nothing to do with people being born because the only reason people grow is because they eat food which is already on the planet so no weight is gained.Actually the only reason that earth gains about 50-60,000 tonnes a year is due to meteors and meteorites landing on earth and they are caused by friction. (had a geog lesson on it today)

Near to the equator.
As the earth bulges a bit at the equator, you should stand at the poles to experience the most centripetal acceleration. Looking at the formula for centripetal acceleration (Ac= v2/r), we see that as the distance from the centre of the body (r) increases, the acceleration decreases, therefore when the distance to the centre mass is smaller, as it is at the poles compared to at the equator, the acceleration is greatest.
Directly is near the equator. Least directly is at the poles.
Gravity is a downward attractive force exerted from the centre of the earth. In other words, the closer you get to the centre of the earth, the stronger the gravitational field strength. The earth is not a perfect sphere. Both the north and south poles are closer to the centre of the earth. In other words, imagine the earth as a a slightly compressed football where the equator is farther from the centre of the earth while both the poles are closer. And because they are closer to the centre of the earth, gravitational field strength is stronger at the poles. But even if Earth were a perfect sphere you would still weigh slightly less at the equator than at the poles due to a small upward centrifugal force that results from Earth's rotation.
At least she wouldn't have to pay for plane tickets since she is as big as Earth!
The sun's rays strike Earth most directly at the equator, where sunlight is more concentrated due to the curvature of the Earth and the angle of incidence. The sun's rays strike Earth least directly at the poles, where sunlight is spread out over a larger surface area and travels through a thicker layer of atmosphere, resulting in lower intensity.
The seasonal variations of temperature in Daly Lane are greatest in regions further away from the equator where the four seasons are more distinct, such as in temperate regions. The seasonal variations are least near the equator and in tropical regions where temperatures tend to remain relatively constant throughout the year.
jupiter,neptune u would weight more...and mercury least
At least 2e^35 of their body weight, inversely proportional to their distance from the equator
The weight is due to the force exerted on the body by the gravitational pull by the earth. If no such gravitational pull on the body, then the body becomes weightless. In free space, very far away from the earth the astronauts experience weightlessness. So if M is the mass of the body, then Mg is the weight of the body. Hence weight depends on the value of 'g'. The value of g is the least at the equatorial region. It will be maximum at the poles. As we go at higher altitudes g value decreases. Same way as we go towards the centre of the earth ie as depth increases, g value decreases.
In the tropics, between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. However, even in these areas they have distinct seasons. It's just that they don't have "winter" and "summer", they have a rainy season and a dry season. In southeast Asia and in India, they call their rainy season the "Monsoon".
