The weight of an object in the coal mine...

The weight of an object in the coal mine, sea level and at the top of the mountain are `W_(1),W_(2)` and `W_(3)` respectively, then

A

`w_(1) lt w_(2) lt w_(3)`

B

`w_(1) = w_(2) = w_(3)`

C

`w_(1) lt w_(2) lt w_(3)`

D

`w_(1) gt w_(2) gt w_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In a coal mine and at the top of a mountain value of g is less, hence apparent weight is less.
