Chapter 12.1, Problem 12.2P
The value of g at any latitude ϕ may be obtained from the formula
which takes into account the effect of the rotation of the earth, as well as the fact that the earth is not truly spherical. Knowing that the weight of a silver bar has been officially designated as 5 lb, determine to four significant figures (a) the mass in slugs, (b) the weight in pounds at latitudes of 0°, 30°, and 50°.
