A man weighs 600N on the equator, but when he moves to the pole he finds a slight increase in his weight. This is because
radius of earth is less at poles since it is not a perfect sphere
As we know that, g = GMR2 and weight is the force due to gravity i.e mg. Since the earth is an imperfect sphere, its R is smaller at poles than at equators. As seen above, g is inversely proportional to R. Thus, the value of g increases at poles. And hence, the weight of body also increases.
