Would your weight change if you moved from the earth to the moon?
Your MASS (kg) is always the same not matter what the force of gravity. Your WEIGHT (N) however is different as the gravity of whatever planet has an effect on each atom making it heavier or lighter. To answer your question, only your weght would be lighter on the moon.
Do you weigh more or less during a full moon?
Lighter because the moon has almost the same density but much smaller size and as result interaction between any mass on the moon surface is weaker than on earth surface. Lighter because the moon has 1/6 less gravity than on earth.
Where would the person weigh the least sea level moon mount Everest?
moon duh less mass u wouldn't weigh less but u would be lighter on the moon.Another answer:You would weigh less on the moon.Your mass would not change (mass is not determined by gravity) but your weight would be less (weight is determined by gravity).
Does the radius of earth effect weight?
Yes, in a way. If the radius of the Earth decreased but it's mass stayed the same, then the forces "pulling" on you (weight) would increase and you would be heavier. If the radius of the Earth increased and the mass stayed the same, then you would be lighter. You would actually weigh less on the top of Mount Everest than on the beach of Honolulu. BTW: This is not a good idea for a weight loss program.
Would a earthling feel heavier or lighter on the surface of mars?
As Mars is smaller than earth, and therefore has a lighter gravity, a person would feel lighter on Mars. In fact on Mars you would weigh half as much
Would an Earthling feel heavier lighter or about the same weight on the surface of Mars?
lighter
Where would you need lighter weight clothing in northern eurpoe or central Africa?
since it is really hot in central africa, you would need lighter clothing there.
Would you be lighter or heavier on titan?
One of Mars's moons? Yes, yes you would be "lighter" (as in less weight) due to titan only being a few miles wide
What temperature would plywood combust?
There is no definite temperature that plywood would combust at. Since plywood contains various chemicals, it will depend on what type those are, its size, etc.
Why would the Oil light flicker after getting off highway i added a lighter weight oil?
The oil light is turning on BECAUSE you put in the lighter weight oil. older engines need the thicker oil.
What one is lighter in weight carbon fiber or aluminum if put on a car as a spoiler?
Carbon fiber would be lighter than the same structural rigidity in aluminum
What is the difference between a point load and a uniform ally distributed load?
Lets say you have a 1 foot by 1 foot piece of plywood. Lets also say that your feet are 12 inches long and when both feet are together are 12 inches wide. Now if you stood on the plywood with both feet you would be distributing your weight over the entire 1 foot by 1 foot area (distributed loading). If you took the same piece of plywood and were able to apply all your weight through your finger and placed that somewhere in the plywood, that point would be loaded at that single point (point loading).
If plywood and glass have the same thickness what would be the best insulating?
Plywood. It has more trapped air.
What is the genus and species name for plywood?
plywood is something companies make so you would have to know what the plywood was made from and then find out what the genus and species name for that is
How do you test bakeware to see if it's aluminum?
Aluminum would be lighter weight than stainless steel.
Can plywood float?
It depends on theplywood density if it is denser then water then you would have to make a shape causing it to displace an equal or greater amount of water in weight for it to float.
4' x 8' x 18mm thick plywood weight?
It depends on the density of the plywood. This site shows some plywood densities in kg/m^3. Let's say your plywood is 500 kg/m^3 (which is at the low end of the plywood densities isted on that page). Converting the dimensions of the plywood to meters gives the following: height: 4 ft = 4 ft * (12 in/ft) * (2.54 cm/in) * (1m/100cm) = 1.22 m width: 8 ft = 8 ft * (12 in/ft) * (2.54 cm/in) * (1m/100cm) = 2.44 m thickness: 18 mm * (1m/1000mm) = .018 m The volume of the plywood is height * weight * thickness = 1.22 * 2.44 * .018 = .0535 m^3. Weight is density * volume. So, at 500 kg/m^3, the plywood would weigh: 500*.0535 = 26.8 kg. 1 kg is approximately 2.2 pounds, so 26.8 kg is 26.8 kg * (2.2 lb/kg) = 58.9 pounds. If, however for example, your plywood is 700 kg/m^3, it would weigh 40% more, or 82.5 pounds.
