How much weight of a body of mass 25 kg at the equator will change when the earth stops to revolve about its own axis?

Solution

Mass of the body = 25 kg
If the earth stops to revolve, the acceleration due to gravity will increase by Rω^2.Therefore, the weight of body will increase by mRω².
Thus increase in weight is,

increment straight W space equals space mRω squared

space space space space space space space space space space equals 25 cross times 6.4 cross times 10 to the power of 6 cross times open parentheses fraction numerator 2 straight pi over denominator 86400 end fraction close parentheses squared

asymptotically equal to space 0.845 space straight N
