Explain Will 1 kg of sugar be more at poles or at the equator?
1 kg of sugar will weigh slightly more at the poles compared to the equator due to differences in gravity caused by the Earth's rotation. Gravity is stronger at the poles and weaker at the Equator due to the centrifugal force caused by the Earth's rotation.
Why does the weight of a substance changes when weighed in a diff parts of world?
it is because earth is not perfectly spherical and also it spins on its Axis. The centrifugal force is greater at the equator and zero on poles. So the apparent weight at equators is lee because of centrifugal force. Also Earth is flattened at the poles which means that there is more acceleration due to gravity at poles[since g=GM/(R^2] In all, ate value of g ranges from around 9.7-9.9 on earth. This causes all the difference.
Why does spinning effect a planets shape?
Gravity causes a spinning planet to stay more or less round, assuming it became that way when it was still molten or is a gas planet. However, centrifugal force can oppose the gravitational force, causing a planet to bulge out at its equator and flatten slightly at the poles.
An object's weight at sea level at 90 North latitude is slightly more than the weight of the same object at sea level at 0 latitude?
This is true due to the difference in gravitational pull between the poles and the equator. At the poles, the Earth's rotation causes a slightly smaller centrifugal force, making gravity slightly stronger compared to the equator. This results in objects weighing slightly more at higher latitudes.
Would you weigh more at North Pole?
Yes, slightly more, for two reasons: 1) You are nearer the Earth's center, and no centrifugal force as when you are at the equator.

What has more gravity the equator or north pole?
The North pole due to centrifugal force and its effects at the equator
Where is the strength of gravitatioal force in the poles or equator?
The bulging Earth has more surface "gravity" at its equator.
Why would an object way less at the equator than at the poles?
Not for sure but it seems like there would be more gravity at the equator than at the poles. The earth rotates and creates a centrifugal acceleration at the equator the counters the force of gravity. acceleration due to gravity =GM/R2 acceleration due to rotation =V2/R So gravity at the equator is GM/R2 - V2/R
Why is the gravitational field strength stronger 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.
The force that dictates that objects weight more at the equator than at the poles is?
gravity
What is the force that dictates that objects weigh more at the equator than at the poles?
Well the above question is not true, The same object will weigh less at the equator than at the poles (of Earth). The force is the force of gravity and the effect is because the object placed at the poles will be nearer the center of the Earth than at the equator because the Earth is an Oblate Spheroid.

Effect of axial motion- bulging of the earth?
Axial motion, such as the Earth's rotation and precession, can cause bulging at the equator due to the centrifugal force generated by the spinning of the planet. This bulging is known as the equatorial bulge and results in the Earth being slightly flattened at the poles and slightly bulging at the equator.
An object's weight at sea level at 90 North latitude is slightly more than the weight of the same object at sea level at 0 latitude?
This is true due to the difference in gravitational pull between the poles and the equator. At the poles, the Earth's rotation causes a slightly smaller centrifugal force, making gravity slightly stronger compared to the equator. This results in objects weighing slightly more at higher latitudes.
