Homework Statement
A man that has an ordinarily weight of 780 N stands on a libra on the equator.
Homework Equations
What is the weight measured by the libra?
The Attempt at a Solution
I thought it was simple, so I just did:
P = m * g
Since it gives me P I can simply do:
m = P / g = 780 / 9.81 = 79.51 kg
But looking at the solution on the book it says that it's 0.
Did I do something wrong?
