To find the answer to this riddle, we need to think about something that can "weigh a thousand pounds on Monday but is weightless by Friday." This riddle is meant to be a play on words that requires a bit of lateral thinking.
The key to solving this riddle is understanding that the weight being referred to is not physical weight, but rather the weight of importance or significance. So, think of something that can be of great significance or importance on Monday but loses its importance by Friday.
The answer to this riddle is "a shadow." On Monday, when the sun is directly overhead, shadows can be quite long and noticeable, giving the impression of being heavy or weighing a thousand pounds. However, as the week progresses, the angle of the sun changes, and shadows become shorter and less significant, ultimately becoming weightless or less noticeable by Friday.
So, the answer to the riddle is a shadow.
