No, because acceleration of free fall is gravitational acceleration minus air resistance. Weight does not involve air resistance.

What states that acceleration equals force divided by mass?
If: Newton's Second Law states that Force equals Mass times Acceleration. Then: Algebraically, Acceleration would equal Force divided by Mass
What is the weight of a falling object that has a mass of 16 kg?
0 because while the mass remains at 16 Kg, as the object is falling its weight (caused by the pull of gravity on its mass) becomes 0 as its acceleration equals that of the acceleration due to gravity. (This is why things seem weightless when in orbit round the Earth - they are actually falling).
What is the acceleration caused by your push on a ball?
The acceleration of the ball would depend on its mass and the force of the push. This is because force = mass times acceleration. You could manipulate this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing each side by mass. Acceleration therefore equals force/mass.
What does F equals MA Stand For?
force = mass * acceleration
Between mass and weight which is dependent on the other?
The weight is dependent on the mass. Mass is the same everywhere but since weight is mass * acceleration due to gravity, weight is the dependent variable.
You weight equals your?
mass times the acceleration due to gravity
If acceleration equals gravity. what is the weight of the object?
Object's weight = (object's mass) multiplied by (acceleration of gravity in the place where the object is)
What is the weight an object with a mass of 5.0kg?
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.
Weight equals mass times?
The weight of an object can be determined by multiplying the object's mass by the gravitational acceleration it experiences.W = mgwhere W is the weight, m is the mass and gis the gravitational acceleration.On earth, g is 9.8 m/s2 of 32 ft/s2.
Why does weight slow down a car?
The foundation of physics is Newton's equation, force equals mass times acceleration. Hence, for a given amount of force, more mass equals less acceleration. Or in other words, it takes force to move a weight. The more weight you are trying to move, the more force you need.
What is mg in physic?
m is the mass of an object. g is acceleration due to gravity, which is 9.81m/s^2. So mg is mass x acceleration due to gravity. It equals the weight of an object. Typically mass is measured in grams and acceleration due to gravity is in meters per second squared, giving the weight in Newtons.
How can you measure weight?
Weight is the term for the mass times the acceleration. To measure that, you multiply the mass times the acceleration
How can measure weight?

What is mass multiplied by gravity?
Force or weight Force= mass X acceleration gravity is an acceleration (9.8m/s2) Weight = mass X acceleration due to gravity
Is this right force equals mass divided by acceleration?
No. Force = mass x acceleration.
What happens to the acceleration when mass and force are doubled?
Acceleration remains the same. Remember that Force equals Mass times Acceleration, or Acceleration equals Force divided by Mass. So, if both Force and Mass double, Force Divided by Mass remains the same.
Is the mass of body the same thing as the weight?
No. The weight is the mass times the acceleration. W=ma. The weight can be zero if the acceleration is zero, even if the mass is positive. Mass and weight are not the same thing.
