Given below are two statements :

Statement I : The law of gravitation holds good for any pair of bodies in the universe.

Statement II : The weight of any person becomes zero when the person is at the centre of the earth.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

<p><b>Statement I</b> is true. Newton&#39;s law of universal gravitation states that every particle of matter in the universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the particles and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This law applies to any pair of bodies in the universe.</p> <p><b>Statement II</b> is also true. The weight of an object is the force of gravity acting on it. If a person were at the center of the Earth, the gravitational pull from all the surrounding mass of the Earth would cancel out, resulting in zero net gravitational force and therefore zero weight.</p> <p>Therefore, Option A: Both Statement I and Statement II are true, is the correct answer.</p>
