on a mountain because the earth pulls things to the core and when you are higher the object will be heaver

Would an object weigh more at the top of a mountain or at sea level?
You would weigh more at sea level. As you get father away from the surface of the earth, the force of gravity is weaker
Why would you weigh less on a high mountain peek and weigh more at sea level?
Newtons Law of gravity. F=Gm1m2/r^2
When a pendulum clock is taken from sea level to the top of a high mountain it will?
..weigh less and the pendulum will swing at a slower rate. It might become more valuable (high mountain areas have less access to fine clocks than many sea level communities).
Does an object weigh more in water or in air?
air
How can you calculate weight of object in water if original weight of object displaced and amount of water is given?
Here's one way that would work: 1. Weigh a bowl of water. 2. Hold the object underwater with a piece of wire or straw and mark the higher water level with a grease marker. 3. Fill the bowl to the line with more water and weigh it again.

Why would a person weigh more on top of a mountain then on the earth?
They would not. In fact, they would weigh slightly less. The force of gravity decreases as an object gets further from the centre of the Earth.
Where do you weigh more at sea level or atop one of the peaks of the Rocky Mountain?
sea level because the closer you get to the center of the earth the more pressure there is and a top a mountain there is less gravity force pulling you down so you feel a lot lighter.
What planet makes an object weigh the most?
jupiter is the planet which makes the object's weigh more
Is air pressure greater at sea level or on top of a mountain?
Air pressure is greater at sea level because there is more air above that is pressing down. Any atmosphere is more dense at the surface of the planet than at locations higher in altitude. (Areas that are lower than sea level will generally have still higher atmospheric pressure.)
Does water weigh more when an object is placed in it?
no
Why does a bigger object weigh more?
Becaude it has more mass
When a pendulum clock is taken from sea level to the top of a high mountain it will?
..weigh less and the pendulum will swing at a slower rate. It might become more valuable (high mountain areas have less access to fine clocks than many sea level communities).
Does an object weigh more in water or in air?
air
Does a rock weigh more than a moon?
No. Any object on the moon would weigh about a sixth of what it does on Earth.
Where is there more air pressure sea level or at the top of a mountain?
At sea level
