In space, away from the gravitational influence of heavenly bodies, an overweight person would be 'weightless' meaning they would float as much as anyone else since there is no gravitational pull on their body. They would still have a greater mass than a person of lesser earth-weight.
Everything weighs less on other planets. On some planets you would weigh more. For example: it you went to the earth's moon and you weighed 100 pounds then you would weigh 17 pounds on the moon! but, if you could go on the sun without dying, and if you weighed 100 pounds you would weigh 2,800lbs.
What else can I help you with?
Can people be weightless if so how and where?
People are weightless if in zero gravity in outer space. On earth, weightlessness can be simulated for training in a rapidly descending aeroplane.
Why do astronaut feel weightless in space?
They actually are weightless, due to the fact there is no gravity in space. However a sky-diver would say he/she feels weightless, but they are experiencing free-fall.
If the space station were in a geosynchronous orbit above the earth would the people be weightless?
Yes, people on the space station in a geosynchronous orbit above Earth would still experience microgravity, which can make them feel weightless. This is because they are continuously falling towards Earth due to the balance between their forward motion and the planet's gravitational pull.
How can an object in space warp space and time if it is essentially weightless and would not therefore create any gravitational influence on it?
Weightless is not the same as massless -- it is an object's mass that warps space (and time) around it, creating a gravitational field.
How do the people who travel in space feel?
-- weightless -- falling -- nausea -- loneliness -- isolation -- insignificant in size
Is your pee weightless in space?
Yes.
How heavy would the earth need to be for it to fall out of the solar system?
not possible, everthing is weightless in space.
What describes what people feel when they travel in space?
-- weightless -- falling -- nausea -- loneliness -- isolation -- insignificant in size
Are astronauts in a space shuttle weightless?
yes there are
Why does an astronaut become weightless in space?
Yes
When are astronauts in space weightless?
i like turtles
When in space are you weightless?
Not exactly. In space, u lose a % amount of weight.
