How much is 120mg on the moon?
An object whose mass is 120 milligrams has the same mass wherever it is ... whether on earth,on the moon, on Jupiter, or in space on the way. Mass doesn't change.What changes is the weight of that mass. The weight is the result of the gravitational attractionbetween that little mass and whatever other mass happens to be nearby.On earth, 120 mg of mass weighs about about 0.00176 newton (0.000265 pound).On the moon, 120 mg of mass weighs about 0.000192 newton (0.0000432 pound).
How many kg in a newton?
On or near the surface of the Earth, 1 newton is the weight of 0.102 kg. In other places, 1 newton is the weight of a different amount of mass.
Who developed a theory about the effect of gravity?
Isaac newton
Is the magnitude of force measured in grams or newtons?
Force is measured in newton. Gram is a unit of mass, not of force.Force is measured in newton. Gram is a unit of mass, not of force.Force is measured in newton. Gram is a unit of mass, not of force.Force is measured in newton. Gram is a unit of mass, not of force.
What happens when a force is exerted?
Newton's second law of motion states that force is equal to mass times acceleration, or F = ma. So, if a force is exerted on something that has mass, it will accelerate.
What is the 'law of universal gravitation and who discovered this law?
That all objects with mass are attacted to all other objects with mass, and it was discovered by Isaac Newton.
How does mass affect the weight of somebodies weight on other planets?
The formula is:weight = mass x gravity.On Earth, "gravity" is about 9.8 meters/second2, equivalent to 9.8 newton/kilogram. That means that each kilogram has a weight of 9.8 newton. On other planets, the "gravity" part will be different. For example, on Mars, the gravity is about 3.7 newton/kilogram. Thus, a man with a mass of 100 kilogram (that's well above the average, but simplifies calculations...) would weigh about 980 newton on Earth, and about 370 newton on Mars.
Which law states force depend on the mass and acceleration of an object?
no
Who formulated the law of the universal gravitation?
The law of universal gravitation was formulated by Sir Isaac Newton. It states that every mass attracts every other mass in the universe with a force proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
What is Earth's gravitational weight?
If you mean the weight of the entire planet Earth, the question is, "weight on what". Gravitation is always a force between two objects. For example, if you have a mass of 60 kg., then you weigh about 600 Newton. This is the force with which Earth attracts you. By Newton's Third Law, you will attract planet Earth with the same force: 600 Newton. So, in this example, the "weight of Earth" (against you) is 600 Newton. The force with which Earth attracts, and is attracted by, other objects, will vary, depending on the mass of the other object, and the distance.If you mean the weight of the entire planet Earth, the question is, "weight on what".

What is the mass of a 3920 newton desk?
Weight = mass x gravity. Assuming normal Earth gravity, you can divide the weight (in newton) by 9.8 to get the mass (in kilograms).
What happens to the force when you increase the acceleration of the mass?
When you increase the acceleration of a mass, the force required to achieve that acceleration also increases. This is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that force is directly proportional to mass and acceleration (F = ma). In other words, a greater acceleration requires a greater force to be applied to the mass in order to achieve it.
