If no large body was influencing your environment, you would be floating (space is as close as we've gotten to such a phenomenon).

Can a body have zero mass and zero weight?

no


Can weight be zero physics?

In classical physics, weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. If an object has zero mass, it would not experience weight as weight is proportional to mass. So, for a body to have zero weight, it would need to have zero mass.


Is it possible for an object's mass to be zero?

No, it is not possible for an object's mass to be zero.


In which condition a body with fixed mass can have zero weight?

A body with fixed mass can have zero weight when it is in freefall or orbiting in space due to the absence of a gravitational force acting on it. This is because weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, and when the force of gravity is balanced by the centripetal force of the body's motion, the body experiences weightlessness.


What is the average weight of a shed?

The shed is of zero mass and zero weight


Why does fat add weight to your bodies?

Fat has mass, so it adds weight to your body. (If you were weighed in zero gravity, it would weigh nothing, but it still has mass.)


What will happen to mass and weight of a body on earth if suddenly gravitational attraction of the earth disappeared?

Your mass would be unaffected, it is simply to do with the atoms in your body. Your weight would be reduced to zero as that is simply how much your body is affected by gravity.


How is it possible to weigh specimens under zero gravity conditions?

You can measure the mass of your specimen, or the number of matter in it. If you are talking about weight it is not possible, because weight is gravity's effect on that specimen.


Is the mass of body the same thing as the weight?

No, mass and weight are not the same thing. Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object, and it remains constant regardless of the location. Weight, on the other hand, is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, so it can vary depending on the strength of gravity.


What wouid happen to mass and weight of a body if the force of gravity disappear suddenly?

If the force of gravity were to disappear suddenly, the mass of the body would remain the same, as mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change. However, the weight of the body would become zero, since weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity.


What would be the weight in kilograms of a 50 kg body?

The weight of a body depends upon the force of gravity acting upon that body. A 50 kg body will have a weight that is 50 times that of a 1 kg mass. The weight of the body will be different on earth, on the moon and in deep space (zero).


What happens to the mass of a body when it is at the center of the earth?

Assuming that you could get the mass there and intact, the mass of the body would not change. Its weight, however would be zero. Depending on the matter used, the volume might be considerably reduced due to pressure.
