Which of these are directly proportional to each other in the same location on earth?
weight and mass
What does it mean to say mass and weight are proportional to each other?
It means that although they are not equal, there is a correlation between them, e.g., mass directly affects weight. If an object has more mass, it will weigh more.
How do the meaning of mass and weight differ?
mass is the amount of matter in an object. mass remains unaffected by gravity. weight is a measure of a gravitational pull on n object and is there for affected by gravity.
What subatomic particle contributes alomst no weight to an atom?
The subatomic particles that contribute most almost no weight to an atom are electrons at various energy levels. Isotopes of the same element differ from each other only by the number of neutrons.
What is a measure of the effect gravity has upon a mass?
The more mass an object has, the more gravity acts on it. Mass actually is known to affect weight because they both depend on each other. =============================== HONK! Beulah the Buzzer has an objection to raise. Mass does not depend on weight. "Weight" is the name we give to the gravitational force acting on a mass.
Can mass and weight have anything to do with each other?
Yes... Weight=mass*acceleration
How do weight and mass relate to each other?
Mass directly affects weight. If an object has more mass, it will weigh more.
How are mass and weight are different from each other?
they are not defferent from each other they are the some thing
What are the 3 ways in which stars may differ from each other?
Brightness, Color and mass
How would your mass and weight differ on the moon?
-- Your mass doesn't change, no matter where you are. -- Your weight on the moon is 16.5% of what it is on Earth.
Which of these are directly proportional to each other in the same location on earth?
weight and mass
What is the mass of a Swimmer in kg?
Trick question. The mass of the swimmer will always be the same it is the weight that will differ.
Why can an object have the same mass on different planets but its weight could be different?
Mass takes up space, so it will take up the same amount no matter where you are. Weight is dependent on the force of gravity pushing you to the ground. With different forces of gravity on each planet your weight will differ.
What does it mean to say mass and weight are proportional to each other?
It means that although they are not equal, there is a correlation between them, e.g., mass directly affects weight. If an object has more mass, it will weigh more.
How do wait and mass differ?
Weight: the amount or quantity of heaviness or mass; amount a thing weighs. Mass: a body of coherent matter, usually of indefinite shape and often of considerable size: example: When on the moon for example, your weigh will differ from your weight on earth. Your mass however does not change.
