What does weight rely on?
Mass and gravity. F = ma. Weight is a measurement of the force a mass exerts downwards due to the effect of gravity.
Why do scientists rely on mass rather than weight?
Because an objects mass is the same anywhere in the universe.
Why do scientists rely on mass rather than weight as the measurment of how much matter an object contains?
Scientists rely on mass rather than weight because mass is an intrinsic property of matter that remains constant regardless of the gravitational force acting on the object. Weight, on the other hand, is the force exerted on an object due to gravity, so it can vary depending on the strength of gravity at the location of the object. This makes mass a more reliable and universal measure of the amount of matter an object contains.
Why is mass more useful than weight for measured matter?
Scientists prefer to rely on mass instead of weight when measuring because weight will change depending on location, whereas mass remains constant regardless of location. You could weigh 60 pounds on earth, but 10 pounds on the moon, but your mass would be the same on earth and the moon.
If the weight of an object of mass m is mg then the weight of an object of mass 2m is?
The weight of an object of mass 2m is 2mg. Weight is directly proportional to mass, so if you double the mass, you double the weight.
Is mass and weight a force?
Mass and weight are not forces.But weight or a pull of gravity of an object with mass has force
Does air have weight?
Anything with mass has weight; air has mass, therefore it has weight.
How is measurment of weight different from measurement of mass?
Mass is the mass, weight is mass with gravity acting upon it
What do weight and mass measure?
weight and mass measures the volume
What are weight and mass measured in?
Weight in Newtons Mass in kilograms
Will your and mass or weight change When you travel to Neptune?
Your mass will not but your weight will.
What happens to weight as mass is increased?
As the mass increases, the weight also increases correspondingly as the weight is directly proportional to the mass
