If you took this object to the moon what would happen to its weight?
If you took an object to the moon, its weight would decrease significantly because the moon's gravitational pull is only about one-sixth that of Earth's. While the object's mass remains the same, its weight—defined as the force exerted by gravity on that mass—would be much lighter on the moon. This means the object would be easier to lift and move compared to its weight on Earth.
Which is the more fundamental quantity mass or weight?
Mass is more fundamental than weight. Weight depends on mass, but mass does not depend on weight. A 1kilogram object will have less weight than a 2kilogram object no matter where they both are, so weight depends on mass. However, a single object with differing weight forces, for example a 1kilogram object taken from a hill to a valley, will have constant mass, so mass does not depend on weight. This is the case because weight is proportional to the distance to the source of gravity, which on the surface of Earth is the distance to Earth's center of mass. Since the top of a hill is farther from the center than the bottom of a valley, the object on the hill will experience less weight force than the same object in the valley.
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.
Does weight change influence inertia?
No, weight change does not influence inertia. Inertia is the property of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, and it depends on the mass of the object, not its weight. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object and can change depending on the gravitational field, but the object's inertia remains constant as long as its mass does not change.
What will happen to the weight of an object if you take the object to the deepest valley of the earth?
Since the weight of an object is calculated as the product of its mass times the mass of the Earth divided by the square of the distance between the object being weighed and the center of the Earth, almost no perceivable change will occur. This is because the two masses do not change, and the square of the distance from the Earth's center changes only slightly even in the deepest valley.
What will happen if the weight of an object is greater than the weight of the water that it displaces?
If the weight of an object is greater than the weight of the water it displaces, the object will sink. This is because the buoyant force exerted by the water on the object is not enough to counteract the object's weight, resulting in it sinking in the water.
What has to happen for an object to float?
For an object to float, it must displace an amount of fluid equal to its weight. This is known as Archimedes' principle. If the weight of the object is less than the weight of the fluid it displaces, the object will float; if the object is denser than the fluid, it will sink.
What will happen if the buoyant force of a liquid is less than the weight of an object placed in that fluid?
The object will sink in the fluid.
What would happen if the weight of an object was less than its buoyant force?
The object would float in a given liquid.
What happen if the buoyant force of a fluid is less than the weight of an object placed in the fluid?
The object will sink in the fluid.
If the buoyant force is less than the weight of an object put in a fluid what will happen to the object?
If the buoyant force is less than the weight of an object placed in a fluid, the object will sink. This is because the force pulling the object down (its weight) is greater than the force pushing it up (buoyant force).
What can happen when the buoyant force on an object is greater than the weight of the object.?
When the buoyant force on an object is greater than the weight of the object, the object will float. This is because the upward force of buoyancy exceeds the downward force of gravity, allowing the object to stay afloat in a fluid.
If the buoyant force equals the objects weight what will happen to the object?
If the buoyant force equals the object's weight, the object will float at a constant level in the fluid. This is known as neutral buoyancy. The object will neither sink nor rise in the fluid.
What will happen if the buoyant force of a fluid is less than the weight of an object placed in the fluid according to Archimedes' principle?
Then the object will sink.
What is the weight of an object in Death Valley?
Very slightly less than at sea level since if you are on the floor of the valley, you are closer to the centre of the Earth, but the difference would be almost impossible to measure
What would happen if the reaction force was less than weight?
If the reaction force is less than the weight of an object, the object would begin to accelerate downwards due to the unbalanced force acting on it. This acceleration will continue until a balance between the reaction force and the weight is restored, or until another force acts on the object to counteract the weight.
