How much force exert when lifting an object?
a force of depend on mass
Does Earth exert a upward or downward force on your body?
Earth exerts a downward (towards the ground or Earth) force on your body. At the same time, your body exerts an upward (towards your body) force on the Earth. Your body is the one that seems to move, however, because the mass of your body is so much less than the mass of the Earth.
What is the acceleration of a hot air balloon with the mass of 50 kg and lift force of 1000 N?
force = mass x acceleration acceleration = force/mass = 1000N/50kg = 20m/s2
How does the mass of an object relate to its weight?
The mass of an object never changes, the weight of an object changes depending on the gravitational force (or which planet you're on). So on earth, the gravitational field strength is 10, so if your mass is 50kg, your weight is 500N
What is gravity and how does it affect your mass?
Gravity is the force all objects exert on all other objects. For example, the earth's mass exerts force on your mass and attracts you to earth while your mass attracts the earth (slightly) to you. Even though gravity is an interaction between mass, it doesn't actually affect mass. Your mass on the moon, which has less gravitational pull that the earth, is no different that your mass on Jupiter, which has more gravitational pull than the earth. What changes is your weight, which is equal to your mass multiplied by the gravitational pull you are experiencing.
What force do the sun and the moon exert on the earth?
They exert Gravitational Force on each other. It is a force which is directly proportional to Mass of the object
Why does the sun exert a bigger force on earth?
Because it has a larger mass
Why does the sun exert more gravitational force on mars than on earth does?
The sun has more mass than earth.
Which object does gravity exert a greater force on?
The one with the greatest mass that is closest to the surface of the Earth.
Why do the earth and the sun exert on the other?
I assume you mean, why do they exert gravitational attraction. ANY object with mass, so any object, exerts such a force on ANY other mass.
Does earth the moon and sun have gravity?
Yes, they have gravity. In fact, anything that has mass will have a gravitational force - the more mass a body has, the more gravitational force it will exert.
Does Earth exert a force on Mercury?
Yes. There is a gravitational force of attraction between every pair of mass objects. EVERY pair.
Would your weight change if you went on the moon?
Good question. Yes, your weight would change, but your mass would not. People often confuse weight with mass.If your mass is 50kg, then your weight on Earth is 500N - weight is a force, and it is equal to mass x acceleration due to gravity.Because the force of gravity on the moon is much less, about 1/6 of that on Earth, your weight would be about 80N. Your mass, however, would still be 50kg.
What would be you're mass on the moon if you are 50kg here on earth?
Weight on the moon is approx one sixth of that on earth so 50kg/6 is 8.3Kg :)
Why does Earth exert a sgronger gravitational force than the moon?
The bigger an object's mass is, the bigger its gravitational pull is. Earth's gravitational pull is larger because it has a bigger mass.
How does the size of the force exerted by earth gravity on a car compare with the size of force the car exert on earth?
A gravitational force exists between every two mass objects.The force is the same on both objects.
How does the size of the force exerted by earth's gravity on a car compare with the size of the force the car exert on earth?
A gravitational force exists between every two mass objects.The force is the same on both objects.
