What else can I help you with?
Will object's weight change on other planets?
Yes. Weight is a function of the planets gravity. For example. The moon is 1/6th the size of the earth, therefore it exerts 1/6ths the gravity pull on everything around it. When the astronauts went to the moon, they weighed 1/6th of what they weighed on earth. This allowed them to pick up very heavy items and jump really high.
What would you weigh if you weighed your self on the moon?
If you were to weigh yourself on the Moon, your wt would be about 1/6 of your earth weight.
How does the weight of an object on earth compare with it's weight on the moon?
On the Earth, the object weighs 6.04 times as much as its weight on the moon.
An objects weight is directly related to its?
mass. Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity, and it is directly proportional to an object's mass. This means that the weight of an object increases as its mass increases.
Explain how your weight on earth would change if you were on the moon?
Your weight on the moon would be about 16.5% of your weight on Earth. This is because the moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity. So, if you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh about 16.5 pounds on the moon.
What is the weight of an object that has a mass of 33.75 grams?
The weight depends on the force of gravity at the point where the object is weighed.
How would the weight of an object change if it is initially weighed in Delhi to poles and them takens to the pole?
The weight of an object would not change when moving from Delhi to the North Pole. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, and since gravity is relatively constant on Earth's surface, the weight of an object remains the same. The only factor that can affect weight is altitude, but the difference in altitude between Delhi and the North Pole is negligible in terms of gravity's impact.
Can matter be weighed?
Yes, matter can be weighed using a scale or balance. The weight of an object is a measure of the gravitational force acting on it. By measuring this force, we can determine the mass of the object.
Can a solid be weighed?
Yes, a solid can be weighed on a scale. The weight of a solid is the force exerted by gravity on the object, which can be measured in units like grams or kilograms.
Is there such a thing as absolute weight?
Weight is not absolute, because weight depends upon where the object is being weighed. An object weighs 6 times more on Earth than the same object weighs on the moon, for example. Mass is constant, unlike weight. Mass does not change by moving to a different location, but weight can.
How does a balance scale work to measure weight accurately?
A balance scale works by comparing the weight of an object to a known weight on the other side of the scale. When the two sides are in balance, the weights are equal. This allows for an accurate measurement of the weight of the object being weighed.
How is a spring scale used to measure weight?
A spring scale is used to measure weight by attaching the object to be weighed to the hook of the scale. The gravitational force acting on the object causes the spring inside the scale to stretch or compress, leading to a reading on the scale that corresponds to the weight of the object.
Why is it necessary to tare a balance before weighing an object?
Taring a balance ensures that the weight of the container holding the object is not included in the final measurement, giving an accurate reading of the object's weight alone. This helps in obtaining precise and reliable measurements of the object being weighed.
What is the mass of an object that weighs 115 pounds?
A pound is a measure of mass, not weight so an object cannot weigh 115 pounds. Assuming that you meant the object weighed 115 poundals, the answer is 1.62 kilograms.
What would you get if you weighed the earth?
Depends where you weigh it. This is really pedantic but weight is a force acting on an object due to gravity, not an inherent characteristic of the object. The Earth has a mass of 6.0x1024 kg. If you weighed it on the Earth (?) it would weigh 6.0x1025 Newtons but on the moon just 7.21023 N.
If a boy weighed 500 n what upthrust would he need to float?
He would need an upthrust force equal to his weight of 500 N in order to float. Upthrust is the force exerted by a fluid (like water) that opposes the weight of an object placed in it. When the upthrust force is equal to the weight of the object, the object will float.
What is the past tense of weight?
Weight is a noun not a verb. Weigh, however, is a verb, and its past tense is weighed.
