Is the force of gravity acting upon an object the object's mass?
No. Mass is a property of the object and doesn't change, no matter where the object goes or what's happening to it. The force of gravity on the object is its "weight" and that can change. It depends on, for example, what planet the object is on.
How does the size of an object affect the force of gravity acting upon it?
The force of gravity acting on an object is directly proportional to its mass. This means that the larger the object, the greater the force of gravity acting upon it.
How does weight relate to gravity and mass?
Weight is the force generated by gravity pulling an object towards the center of the Earth. An object's weight depends on its mass and the strength of the gravitational force acting upon it. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains, while weight is the force exerted on that mass due to gravity.
The force produce by gravity acting on mass is known as?
The force produced by gravity acting on mass is known as weight. It is the force exerted by gravity on an object due to its mass. Weight is a force measured in newtons and is directly proportional to an object's mass.
What property of matter does gravity act upon?
Mass is the property of matter on which gravity act upon.
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.
Is the mass of an object the force of gravity acting upon it?
Weight is not a force. Weight is a phenomenon associated with a mass in a gravimetric field. It's actually the acceleration of a mass acted on by gravity, which is a force. A 100-pound rock would weigh nothing in deep space. It would be weightless. But the rock weighs 100 pounds on earth because of (mostly) the mass of the earth and also (just a tiny bit) because of the mass of the rock.
Mass or weight.Which is dependent upon gravity?
Weight is dependent upon gravity, while mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and remains constant regardless of the gravitational force acting on it. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass, causing it to have a different value depending on the strength of the gravitational field.
How does the gravity effect their mass?
Gravity affects mass by influencing the weight of an object. The mass of an object remains constant regardless of the gravitational force acting upon it, but its weight can change depending on the strength of gravity. As gravity increases, the weight of an object will also increase, but its mass will remain the same.
What Is the point at which the pull of gravity of an object is considered concentrated?
The point at which the pull of gravity of an object is considered concentrated is known as its center of mass. This point represents the average location of the mass of an object where the force of gravity can be considered to act upon.
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.
Measure of force of gravity acting in an object?
The measure of the force of gravity acting on an object is its weight. Weight is the force exerted by gravity on the mass of an object, and it is typically measured in units such as pounds or newtons. The weight of an object can vary depending on the strength of the gravitational field acting upon it.
