Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the conditions under which the weight of a person can become zero, we can analyze three specific scenarios: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Condition in Space:** - When a person is in space, far away from any massive body, the gravitational pull is negligible. In this condition, the person experiences microgravity, which makes them effectively weightless. - **Explanation:** Weight is the force due to gravity acting on a mass (W = mg). In space, g approaches zero, thus W = m * 0 = 0. ...
