Does gravity depend on mass or weight?
well weight depends on mass and gravity so gravity depends on mass. e.g weight=mass X gravity
Is mass and weight affected on the moon by gravity?
Mass isn't affected by gravity, but weight directly depends on it.
In mass and weight what is less than one?
Mass is the amount of matter. Weight had to do with gravity. Weitht is the force of gravity on mass. Some times we use gravity to measure mass such as a spring scale. That does not mean that gravity and mass are the same thing.
Does mass change on other planets due to gravity?
No. Except for insignificant effects related to Special Relativity, the mass remains constant. The weight, on the other hand, changes. Weight is calcualted as: weight = mass x gravity Where "gravity" is the acceleration due to gravity.
What Weight in a gravity-less environment?
mass
Do weight and mass both depend on gravity?
No. Mass is independent of gravity, but weight is a function of gravity and mass.
Does gravity depend on mass or weight?
well weight depends on mass and gravity so gravity depends on mass. e.g weight=mass X gravity
What relationship does mass weight and gravity have?
Weight = mass x gravity
What affected by gravity the weight or the mass?
The mass is basically NOT affected by gravity. The weight IS affected, and it is equal to mass x gravity.
Will the weight of an object change if it changes it state?
No. The mass of an object doesn't change (Law of Conservation of Mass), therefore its weight won't change either (weight = mass x gravity).
What is the relationship between mass weight gravity?
weight = mass x gravity
What is the connection between mass weight and gravity?
Weight = Mass x Gravity
How Weight and mass changed by gravity?
Weight is a force. Gravity is an acceleration. Therefore, mass multiplied by gravity gives you weight.
Is a mass or weight determined by gravity?
[ Mass ] is a property of the object, and doesn't depend on the presence or strength of gravity.[ Weight ] is the result of gravity, and changes depending on the local strength of gravity.
How is gravity different from mass and weight?
Gravity is the cause of the forces that give weight to mass.
How does gravity affect the object's mass and weight?
Gravity affects weight, it does not affect mass.
What you call mass x gravity?
Weight = mass * gravity
