What is a force that can change when acceleration due to gravity changes?
Weight. The force of weight experienced by an object can change when the acceleration due to gravity changes. Weight is directly proportional to the acceleration due to gravity, so an increase or decrease in gravity will result in a corresponding change in weight.
Is mass and weight different?
Yes. Weight is a force. Force = mass x acceleration. Acceleration is the gravity of a body. So on Earth, weight = mass x 9.9 m/sec2 Mass is a property related to the atoms in a substance.
When a force equals its weight is applied on a body what is its acceleration?
The acceleration depends on the net force. So, you must add the forces together as vectors. The result in this case depends in what direction the force is applied.
Weight equals mass X acceleration of free-fall?
The weight of an object is defined as the force acting on it due to gravity. This force is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2 on Earth). So, weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity.
What is the acceleration due to gracity due to apparent weight?
The acceleration due to gravity remains constant regardless of apparent weight. Apparent weight is the measure of force exerted on an object by a supporting surface and includes the force due to gravity acting on the object. So, the acceleration due to gravity affects the apparent weight, but they are not directly related in that sense.
Why does force increase with weight?
In the real world, the word 'weight' is commonly wrongly used interchangably with 'mass' as both are measured in kilograms. The formula is Force (weight in this case) = Mass x Acceleration. Force is measured in Newtons (N). Mass - the amount of substance - is measured in Kilograms (Kg) and Acceleration - rate of change of speed - is measured in m/s/s. F=ma, therefore weight increases with mass along with acceleration. However, returning to its scientific definition, weight is 'the force with which a body is attracted to Earth or another celestial body, equal to the product of the object's mass and the acceleration of gravity.'(dictionary.com) The direct answer to the question is thus weight=force and they increase proportionately in a 1:1 ratio. so it does that GET IT!!!!
Does your weight change if the acceleration due to gravity changes?
Your weight is determined by the force of gravity acting on you, so it will change if the acceleration due to gravity changes. If the acceleration due to gravity increases, your weight will increase, and if it decreases, your weight will decrease.
What is the effect of acceleration on an object which is not moving?
An object which is not moving is not experiencing any acceleration, other than the acceleration due to gravity, which, along with mass gives it its weight. The upward force (normal force) acting on the object is equal to but opposite to its weight, and all of the forces acting on the objects are in equilibrium so the net force is zero Newtons.
Will acceleration due to gravity change the weight of an object?
No, acceleration due to gravity does not change the weight of an object. Weight is determined by the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity in that location. The acceleration due to gravity affects the force with which an object is pulled toward the center of the Earth, leading to its weight.
How are mass weight and acceleration related to gravity?
Gravity is the force that attracts two masses together. Weight on Earth is the force of gravity acting upon an object on Earth. The formula for force is: F=ma -or- Force=mass x acceleration So, multiplying an object's mass by its acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s2 on Earth) will give you the measurement of the force of gravity acting upon the object, also known as the object's weight.
How is newtons second law shown in every day life?
Well one example would be throwing a baseball. Newton's second law is the law of Force: force = mass x acceleration, so the impact force of the baseball on your mitt depends on the mass of the baseball and it's acceleration rate. Another example is weight. Weight is a measurement of your force on the planet, but mass is how much substance is in something. So the way to calculate your weight in Newtons is to take your mass (kilograms) and multiply it my the acceleration on Earth due to gravity (which is roughly 9.8 meters/second squared) and then you will get your weight in Newton's. Hope this helps!
How does upthrust depend on accleration due to gravity?
it depends on acceleration due to gravity as f=mg, when acceleration due to gravity increases the force acting also increases.when force acting increases it cancels the upward thrust(buoyant force)so the body sinks in the liquid.
