Question
CBSEENSC9006070

Amit buys few grams of gold at poles as per the instruction of one of his friends. He hands over the same when he meets him at equator. Will the friend agree with the weight of gold bought? If not, why?

Solution

The friend of Amit will not agree with the weight of the gold bought. The value of 'g' at the equator is less than that at the poles. Hence, the few gram of gold at poles will measure less when taken to the equator.
