What is the weight of a falling object that has a mass of 16 kg?

0 because while the mass remains at 16 Kg, as the object is falling its weight (caused by the pull of gravity on its mass) becomes 0 as its acceleration equals that of the acceleration due to gravity. (This is why things seem weightless when in orbit round the Earth - they are actually falling).

What is the atomic mass of a Hydrogen and oxygen atom?
If the atomic mass of water is 18 and the atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 then the atomic mass of oxygen is 16
What is the atomic mass for oxgen?
The atomic weight (not mass) of oxygen is [15,99903; 15,99977] or as a conventional value 15,999.
What is the atomic number and the mass number of oxygen?
Atomic number of oxygen: 8After the IUPAC Tables, 2009 the atomic weight of oxygen is[15,99903; 15,99977].The abridged conventional atomic weight is (also after the IUPAC Tables, 2009) 15,999; following the IUPAC tradition the correct expression is atomic weight, not atomic mass.
If a box of cereal wights 21 ounces does it weigh more or less than 1 pound how much more or less?
1 pound = 16 ounces 21 ounces is 5 ounces more than that.
What is the atomic weight of Ni?
Nickel has around 16 nuclides, of which 5 are natural. The average mass is around 58.7.
What do you call the measurement of the gravitational force acting on an object?
Basically it is the object's "weight". The gravitational force on an object is its Mass X Gravitational Constant. The gravitational constant is the acceleration of a free falling body towards another body, and on Earth is equal to 9.81 meters/sec2 or 32.2 feet/sec2. Thus while the MASS of an object is a constant physical property, the WEIGHT of an object depends on the local gravity field pulling on that MASS.
What is terminal velocity from a 16 foot fall?
That depends on the weight and shape of the object that's falling, but it has nothing to do with the length of the fall.

What is the density of an object with a weight of 32 grams?
Density is mass per unit volume. Since there is no information on the volume of the object, the question cannot be answered. Furthermore, mass is only indirectly related to weight. Weight is the force experienced by a mass under the influence of a gravitational force. However, while the mass of a body remains constant, its weight will depend on the gravitational force acting upon it. On the moon, for example, a body will weigh only a sixth as much as it does on earth. So you cannot use weight in calculating density.
Is 16 pounds bigger than 18.5 pounds?
The object with the larger number of pounds has the larger mass, and the larger weight. Whether this object is also actually LARGER will depend both on its density and on its shape.
Does weight affect the speed of the object fallen?
Weight has nothing to do with how fast things fall, only wind resistance. Take two 16 ounce soda bottles, open one drink eight ounces. The unopened bottle is twice as heavy as the opened bottle. Close the bottle you just drank half of and drop them at the same time from a tall building, they will hit the ground at the same time. That is because the acceleration of any falling object is the same, and their speed when they hit the ground is the same. Acceleration is the same for all objects at 9.81 meters/second^2 (32.2 feet/second^2, or 22 mph per second). Thus, ignoring air resistance an object starting from rest will attain a speed of 9.81 m/s after one second, 19.62 m/s after two seconds, and so on. If you are wondering why a hammer hit the ground before a feather, look at it's aerodynamic qualities, it has nothing to do with its weight.
How much would an object weigh if it were four times farther from the center of the earth?
weight, w = G * m1 * m2 / r^2, where G = the universal gravitational constant, m1 = the mass of the object, m2 = the mass of the earth, and r = the separation between the center of gravity of the object and that of the earth. w1 = G * m1 * m2 /(r1^2) -- > the weight when r = r1 w2 = G * m1 * m2 /(r2^2) -- > the weight when r = r2 Given: r2 = 4 * r1 w2 = G * m1 * m2 /(16 r1^2) = w1 / 16 Hence, the object will be 16 times lighter when it is situated 4 times farther away.
What is mass if the work is 372 j and the object is moved 16 m?
From that information, we can't calculate the mass of the object. But we can calculate the strength of the force that was used to move it. Work = (force) times (distance) 372 = (force) times (16) Force = 372 / 16 = 23.25 newtons
What happens to weight on the moon?
Nothing happens to the weight of an object on the moon. It remains constant, at about 16% of what the same object weighs when it's on the Earth.
How far will a free falling object have fallen from a position of reset when its instantaneous speed is 5ms?
Oh about 16 feet Oh about 16 feet
