How far something travels?

Displacement is the term for the change in position of an object. You find displacement by taking the final position of the object and subtract the initial position of the object.


If you move an object twice as far from a planet how does that change the planets gravitational force on that object?

The mutual force of gravitational attraction between any two masses is proportional; tothe square of the distance between their centers.When an object is moved twice as far from the planet's center, the force between themdecreases to 1/22 = 1/4 of its original magnitude.


How is mass weight and force the same?

They're not. Weight and force are the same, but mass doesn't belong."Mass" is the stuff an object is made of, and never changes."Weight" is the force of gravity between the object and another mass.Weight depends on what the other mass is, and how far the object is from it.That's why the same mass has different weights on the earth and moon.


Why are the forces balanced on an object falling at terminal velocity?

In a vaccum, different objects have no terminal velocity... the further they fall, the faster they go. So, "air drag" is what provides differing terminal velocities, and the object's shape and weight distribution controls that drag.


Can an object have a non zero force and have constant kinetic energy?

an object can have a non zero force acting upon it if and only if the sum of all of the forces on the object is still equal to zero. The sum of the forces is equal to mass times acceleration. If an object is accelerating, then it does not have a constant KE therefore the sum of the forces must be equal to 0 so that acceleration is also equal to zero. For instance, take the case of an object falling through the air. Initially, the force of gravity is accelerating the object downward and it is gaining KE. After some time, this object will reach terminal velocity. At this point, the resistance force of the air on the object negates the force of gravity and the sum of the forces is equal to zero. The object now falls at a constant velocity and in turn also a constant KE. It is still being acted upon by the force of gravity and the resistance force but these forces are canceling each other out. =============================== I don't like to delete an answer that somebody put a lot of effort into, and supervisors don't like it when I become plainly uncomplimentary. So all I can say is: Use the above answer at your own extreme peril, and far better to ignore it. Especially the 1st and 3rd sentences.

Does weight affect how far an object travels?

yes it does, however, the velocity at which the object is thrown also is a factor to consider.


How does the force in which you kick the soccer ball affect how far it travels?

Hit it harder, it goes further. That is to say that force is directly proportional to the distance travelled.

Does weight effect how far an object travels?

in simple terms yes it does effect how far an object travels but it depends how it is traveling what gravity its traveling in and so on.

When an object is moving faster through a fluid -how does this affect the force of friction?

In a fluid, the force of friction tends to increase when the speed increases. The exact relationship, however, is far from simple.
