Theoretically, Zero. The gravitational pull of the earth on you (which is the definition of weight), whether the earth is solid or hollow, is the same in all directions because it is spherically symmetrical. These forces cancel each other out, leaving you with zero net weight. In real life, the earth is not a perfect sphere, but this model describes the situation adequately.

Why is the weight of an object zero at the center of the earth?
The gravitational attraction is not by anything special in the center of the Earth; instead, it is the sum of the attraction by every individual atom.For an object in the center of the Earth, the pull in one direction will be exactly compensated by the pull in another direction.So it turns out that if you're anywhere inside a solid sphere, it acts as if none of the mass OUTSIDE of yourposition is there. You're only affected by the mass of the smaller sphere INSIDE your position, as if you wereon its surface, and the 'shell' outside of your position had gone away.The weight is zero at the center of the earth. since F= G M.m / 2 d at the center of the earth the distance is zero from the center thus no force is imaginable. a more profound explanation is that at the center you are being puled by every particle from all sides with equal forces, the net force is logically zero.since weight=mgand gravity at center of earth is zero(g=0)so weight is zero
What will be the weight of an object at centre of earth if it is 10kg on surface of earth?
The weight of the object at the center of the Earth would be zero. This is because at the center of the Earth, the gravitational forces from all directions cancel each other out.
Weight of an object will be minimum when placed at?
The weight of an object will be minimum at high point like mountain. This is because weight depends on acceleration due to gravity and acceleration due to gravity is inversely proportional to the square of distance from center of earth to the object. As high places like mountain is far from earth center, there is minimun weight. But at the center of earth the weight becomes null as gravity pull takes place in all direction from the center.
What is the center of gravity for a spherical object?
The center of gravity for a spherical object is located at the exact center of the sphere. This point is equidistant from all points on the surface of the sphere, making it the point where the force of gravity can be considered to act on the object.
What will be the weight of a body it is raised above the earth equal to its radius?
The weight of a body when raised above the Earth to a height equal to its radius will be 1/4 of its weight at the surface of the Earth. This is because the force of gravity decreases with distance from the center of the Earth, following an inverse-square law.
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.
What is the largest sphere of the earth?
The largest sphere that can fit around Earth is the geocentric celestial sphere. This imaginary sphere has Earth at its center and encompasses all celestial objects visible in the sky.
Do objects become lighter as they get closer to the center of the earth?
Objects masses would not change, but the pull of gravity on an object from another object when the first is inside the other is effectively zero when the inside is at the center of mass of the outer. If the Earth were a thick walled but hollow sphere, objects would stick (weakly) to the inside surface as well as the outer.
What is the weight of the body at the center of the earth?
In theory, at the center of the Earth you would have no weight.
What happens to your weight as you get farther from the center of earth?
As you get farther from the center of Earth, your weight willDECREASE
Is our Earth hollow in the center?
Many theorists believe that the entrance to the Earth hollow is located at 87.7 degrees North latitude and at 87.7 degrees South latitude which is the location of the North and South Pole. These polar openings lead directly to the Earth's core which has led these theorists to believe that the Earth's hollow is in the center of the Earth's core.
Celestial Sphere is modeled on what major misconception?
that the earth is the center of the universe
What is Dense sphere of solid iron and nickel at the center of the earth?
core
What is the gravitational potential energy at the center of the earth?
Ideally, if the earth were a perfect sphere, the gravitational potential energy would be zero. In the center of a sphere all other points within the sphere have an equal and opposite counterpoint. They work to cancel each other out. However, the earth is not a perfect sphere so there would likely be a gravitational pull towards the area with the greatest mass.
What is the sphere of very hot metal at the center of the earth?
this is called the mantel or POP.
What is the dense sphere or solid iron and nickel at the center of the earth?
inner core
When the force of gravity is calculated using a large spherically symmetric mass like the Earth the distance is measured to the centre of the sphere why is this so?
Teh force of gravity is measured form the center of gravity, thus the center of gravity of the object is appropriately the center of the force. The center of the sphere is also the center of gravity of the sphere.
