Solution
The correct option is B less than
Rahul's friend, at the equator, will receive 100 gram of silver because mass of an object does not change. But the weight of the same will be less than that measured by Rahul at the north pole. This is because the value of 'g' is less in equator than the poles because centrifugal effect is maximum at equator.
