One who ignores gravity would likely fall down and hurt himself a lot,

and would also be perpetually dropping things too, as well.

Why is mass a useful property?

Mass has two significant consequences, which are gravity and inertia. Without gravity we would have no planets or stars, since interstellar gas clouds would never condense. And without inertia, it would be really hard to play tennis.


What is the mathematical relationship between mass and weight?

Mass is measured in kg's, and gravity is measured by the acceleration of an object caused by gravity, at sea level (ignoring air resistance). This force can be converted into Newtons per kg. Earth's is about 10m/s/s (couldn't put a squared sign in), therefore is about 10N per kg.


What is the vertical acceleration of a projectile if the vertical component of its velocity vector is zero?

The vertical component of a projectile's velocity is irrelevant. It can be up, down, or zero, makes no difference. As long as projectile motion lasts ... gravity is the only force on the object and you're ignoring air resistance ... its acceleration is constant, and is equal to the acceleration of gravity: 9.8 meters per second2 pointing down.


Why doesnt water come out of a cup when dropped?

Because the effect of gravity doesn't really care about density -- all objects are accelerated at the same rate (ignoring wind resistance). Since the cup is feeling wind resistance, but the water isn't (since it's in the cup), the water is experiencing "positive" g-forces, even while falling. So gravity keeps the water in the cup.


Does a leaf and a rock accelerate at the same rate?

Under gravity, ignoring air resistance, yes they do. During one of the Apollo missions, one of the astronauts dropped a feather and a hammer at the same time; in the vacuum on the Moon, both landed at exactly the same time.

well we would be dead because, gravity is what keeps us on the ground.


What are the consequences of ignoring a citation you received for not wearing a helmet on your bike in California It cannot go on your license so what can happen if you just toss it?

Ignoring any citation can result in a bench warrant, which can net you some jail time, which can go on your record.


What is the moral lesson of the story of daedalus and icarus?

The moral lesson of the story of Daedalus and Icarus is to heed warnings and not to be overly ambitious. It warns against hubris and the consequences of disobedience or ignoring wisdom. It serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of being reckless and ignoring advice.


Could you walk on mercury or float?

Ignoring the temperature extremes you would walk on Mercury, though with some difficulty. No planet has such weak gravity that you would float. The surface gravity is 38% that of Earth. Astronauts on the moon, whose gravity is about 16% that of Earth found it difficult to keep balance while walking and instead moved around by jumping.


What is the upward acceleration of a falling object?

If you are ignoring wind and other variables then the upward acceleration is negative velocity caused by gravity. So in most cases (-9.8 m)/(s^2)
