I don't know. I was just looking for the same answer just now...lol. I think mass times weight equals gravity. I found on WikiAnswers just a few minutes ago that mass divided by weight equals acceleration, so that means mass times weight can't also equal acceleration; furthermore, I found elsewhere on the internet about 10-30 minutes ago that weight equals mass times gravity, so if you invert the formula "W = M * G", there are 2 ways to convert it: "M = W / G" & "G = M * W". I'm guessing mass times weight does equal gravity, but I'm not positive. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help, but please be sure to read what is beyond this colon.:
W = Weight
M = Mass
G = Gravity
/ = Divided by symbol
* = Times symbol
"=" = Equals/Is Equal To/Etc.
The object's "weight".
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, weight is the force of gravity on an object. Weight is directly proportional to mass and gravity: (Weight = mass \times gravity). On Earth, gravity is relatively constant, so an object's weight is a good indicator of its mass.
No, look at a the the size of a beachball and the size of a Bowling ball. Answer2: Yes. The weight of an object is dependent on mass. Weight = mass times gravity acceleration g, W = mg.
Well, first you would have to find the object's mass and weight. Since the gravitational force on Jupiter is approximately 2.3 times the gravitational force, you would have to multiply the mass times 2.3 and the weight times 2.3.
Yes, the acceleration of gravity times the mass of the object gives a force that is the weight.
The weight of an object is the force of gravity on the object and may be defined as the mass times the acceleration of gravity, w = mg. Since the weight is a force, its SI unit is the newton. Density is mass/volume.
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.
Mass is a characteristic of all matter, including all objects. An object's weight is the resultant force of all of the gravitational forces acting on it. An object's weight near the surface of Earth is its mass times about 9.8 m/s^2.
Both mass and weight are measures of the amount of matter in an object. Mass is an intrinsic property and remains constant regardless of location, while weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass, making it dependent on the object's location.
Weight is an objects mass times the gravitational acceleration it undergoes. For a 5.0kg mass this would be 49N which equals 11.02 pounds.
Looking at the definition of Weight:Physics . the force that gravitation exerts upon a body, equalto the mass of the body times the local acceleration of gravity[dictionary.com]In the absence of gravity an object with mass does not have weight.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the gravitational force applied to an object. Mass is a function of weight since weight it determined by the amount of force placed on an object of a certain mass.
