What else can I help you with?
Do electrons have the mass as protons?
Protons are part of the nucleus, so they have less mass than the nucleus (except in the specific case of hydrogen, where the nucleus is a single proton so they have the same mass).Electrons are much less massive than protons. It would take 1836 electrons to equal the mass of one proton.Neutrons are very slightly more massive than protons, by just about the mass of an electron. They're close enough that they're generally treated as having essentially the same mass.
Would weight increase or decrase on the surface of an earth sized planet with greater mass than earth?
If you're the same distance from the center of the planet but its mass is greater than earth's mass, then the mutual gravitational force between you and that planet is greater than on earth, and you'll "weigh" more than you do here.
What is the mass and weight of a 10-kg object on Earth?
10 kilograms is the mass. To calculate the weight (in newtons), multiply the mass by 9.8.
What problems would you have if your house was built as a mass structure?
none, a mass structure is pretty much just like your house! its built to hold up weight.
Why does the weight varies from place to place on the earth's surface?
Because people eat a lot when they travel on vacation. Just kidding. Because your "weight" is determined by gravity, and gravity varies very slightly over the face of the earth. Nothing you would notice in ordinary experience, but if you doing something like trying to target an intercontinental missile or steer a satellite (where slight miscalculations matter) it would make a difference Think of weight as mass plus gravity. What is mass? If something is floating in space it has no weight but it still has its mass. A 200 pound steel anvil will weigh nothing in space but still have the same mass. It's a weird concept, don't fight it, mass is the stuff something is. Your "weight" is your mass being attracted to the mass of the earth, like two magnets. The more mass you have (the bigger you are) the more gravity. This is why you one sixth on the moon, because the moon only has one sixth the mass of the earth. One more concept: the closer two masses are to each other the stronger the gravitational attraction. So as you get away from the earth it's gravity becomes weaker and weaker until you are weightless in space. For a reference point they measure distance from the center of the earth (as in Journey to The Center of the Earth). HERE IS YOUR ANSWER: The earth is not perfectly round, it is slightly egg-shaped, wider at the equator as it spins. The farther you are from the center of the earth the less gravity, the less you weigh. So if you are on a high mountain or at the equator you will weigh a teeny bit less. Your mass stays the same though.
Would the mass of an elephant be less on the moon?
No, the mass of the elephant will never change, but on the moon the elephant would weigh less. Weight is the affect of gravitation wich is the attraction of two bodies that have mass. The mass of the moon is smaller then that of the earth so the gravitational pull would be less.
Is it true On the moon your mass would be less than it on earth but your weight would be the same?
falseIt is false. Your weight would be less on the moon but your mass would be the same.
An astrounaut has a mass of 200kg.what is the weight on earth and on the moon?
If you weighed 200kg on Earth you would weigh 33.2kg on the Moon. Your mass would stay the same.on earth the mass is equal to the weight.on the moon the weight will be inferior to the mass due to the smaller mass of the moon inducing less gravitational pull
Would mass be more or less on the moon?
Mass is the same no matter where you are. Weight is less, but mass is the same.
How are mass and weight affected if a block of iron is transported to the moon?
The mass of the block remains the same because mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. However, the weight of the block would decrease on the moon compared to Earth due to the moon's lower gravity. Weight is the force with which gravity pulls on an object's mass.
Why is a persons weight different on earth than on the moon?
The gravity is less on the Moon, because the Moon is smaller than earth; it has less mass, and therefore "sucks" less than the earth. Weight is gravity times mass, you have the same mass on Earth and on the Moon (and in space), but weigh less on the moon.
How would weight change for an object going to a planet with less gravitational force than earth?
Weight decreases as gravity decreases.
Would a person weigh less on Pluto or the Moon?
A person would weigh less on the Moon compared to Pluto because the Moon has less mass and weaker gravity than Pluto. The gravitational pull on Pluto is stronger due to its larger mass, causing a person to weigh more on Pluto than on the Moon.
If an object has a mass of 26 g on earth would its mass be less than 26 g on the moon?
If an object has a mass of 36g on earth it will also have a mass of 26g on the moon. This is because while weight varies depending on gravity, mass is a universal constant that reflects the number of molecules in an object.It's mass would be the same (amount of matter) But it's weight would be less on the moon, yes.
Why would you way less on mars than on earth?
You would weigh less on Mars than on Earth because Mars has less mass than Earth, so it exerts weaker gravitational force. This means that the pull of gravity on your body would be lower on Mars, leading to a decrease in your weight.
On the moon would your mass be less that it is on Earth and your weight would be the same?
False
Is the mass of the astronaut on Mars bigger smaller or the same compared with on Earth?
You would have the same mass on the Earth as you would on the moon. You would just weigh less on the moon because there is less gravity there than on the moon.
