The mass(kg) of a human does not change, but the weight(N) of a human does. If gravity gets stronger, you get squashed(!), but if it gets lighter, you float around!
When gravity changes, the mass of an object remains the same. However, its weight would vary depending on the strength of gravity.
Yes, weight is directly proportional to the force of gravity acting on an object. If the force of gravity changes, the weight of the object will also change accordingly.
I suppose you are asking about what forces change when acceleration due to gravity changes. In this case, the formula for forces concerning acceleration due to gravity is as such: fg=mg. When acceleration due to gravity(g) changes, it affects the force of gravity which is also known as the weight of the object. This is shown as fg.
A pendulum changes its period (time taken to swing back and forth) when the pull of gravity changes, which can be influenced by changes in mass or weight. This change is due to the relationship between the acceleration due to gravity and the formula for the period of a pendulum.
The mass of the object remains the same since it is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, but the weight changes because weight is dependent on gravity, which varies from planet to planet. If the gravitational force on the new planet is different than on Earth, the weight of the object will be different.
The weight of the object would change if gravity changes. cw: Yes, if the FORCE of gravity changes, the FORCE of the object in the downward direction changes.
To get the weight, multiply the mass by the acceleration of gravity wherever the mass happens to be at the moment. Dependoing on local acceleration of gravity, the weight changes from place to place.
Your mass does not change. Your weight, however, changes in proportion to the gravity of each planet.
