W1 = mg1.
W2 = mg2.
When transferring from 1 to 2.
W1=mg1*(g2/g1).
W2=mg2.
W2 = mg2.
When transferring from 1 to 2.
W1=mg1*(g2/g1).
W2=mg2.

Wa=Wb.
mg1=mg2.
So when mass is transferred to Mountain B then,
0=mg2/mg1.
So, m will cancel m and thus it becomes g2/g1.
mg1=mg2.
So when mass is transferred to Mountain B then,
0=mg2/mg1.
So, m will cancel m and thus it becomes g2/g1.

Point A weight of body W = mg1.
Point B weight of body W = mg2.
= w/g1*g2.
Point B weight of body W = mg2.
= w/g1*g2.
