Why is the weight of an object different on earth and the moon even though the objects mass is the same in both places?
Mass is an intrinsic property of matter, it does not vary.
Weight however is variable, it is a measure of the pull of gravity on a mass.
As the Moon's gravity is less than that of the Earth, a mass will weigh less on the Moon than it does on the Earth.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Because the mass of the moon is different from the earth's.
Also their radii is different.
(Note : weight = gravity x mass
and gravity = m1 x m2/(r x r)
What else can I help you with?
The acceleration due to gracity of all objescts in free fall is the same Why then do some objects fall through the air at a different rate than others?
Objects fall at different rates through air due to differences in their air resistance. While the acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects, air resistance can vary based on the shape, size, and surface area of the object. Objects with greater air resistance will fall more slowly than objects with less air resistance, even though they experience the same acceleration due to gravity.
What is the brightest object at sky?
On a year in-year out basis, the top three in order are the Sun, the Moon and Venus. An occasional very bright comet, or an even rarer supernova visible on earth can take over spot #3, though.
What is the highest point of orbit?
The point of farthest excursion is called the apoapsis, with the closest approach being called the periapsis or pericentre, though for different bodies, unique derivitive terms are used. For example, when we talk of object in orbit about the Earth we use perigee and apogee for closest and furthest positions. When we are talking about objects in orbit around the sun, such as the planets, we use perihelion and aphelion for closest and furthest approches.
When an objects mass increases its gravitational pull?
Well mass is the size of an object and if you have a large mass then you are heavy and if you have a smaller mass then yu are light. Mass affects the objects gravitational pull because if you have lrg mass then you weigh more cus of your size. and if you are small you can slip through air faster and if your mass is lrgr then you can sometimes be slower then the smaller mass. Ex. mice are fast and glide across the floor while elephants are large and dont get to places very fast bcus of there weit.
Why is the weight of an object different on Earth and the moon even though the object's mass is the same in both places?
Weight depends on acceleration due to gravity and similarly acceleration due gravity depends on force of gravity. The force of gravity of moon is 6times less than that of earth and due to this their is variation in acceleration due to gravith between the earth and the moon. As there is difference in acceleration due to gravity between the earth and moon, the magnitude of weight also vary . And next most important thing to keep on mind is that mass is independent of gravity so it does not change anywhere ....
Why does an object move if the action-reaction forces are equal?
Even though the action-reaction forces are equal in magnitude, they are acting on different objects which can have different masses. As a result, the acceleration of each object may be different. This difference in acceleration leads to the objects moving in different directions.
Do objects with the same mass take up the same amount of space?
Not necessarily. Two objects with the same mass can have different densities, meaning one object could be more compact and take up less space than the other object even though they have the same mass.
How does gravity affect static objects?
actually the same way it effects the dynamic object. The "gravity" that exhibits the dynamic object appears different often because there are more factors involved- to put it generally. Of course this answer does not really answer your question though, or does it?
Why do objects have the same size sometimes and have have different masses or weights?
No, objects do not always weigh the same. The way this is when more matter is on an object more weight. An object would weigh a different amount in a different gravitational field. For instance an object with a mass of 1 kg weighs 1 kg on earth. Its weight would be different on the moon though the mass would remain the same.
The force of gravity also depends on how close an object is to?
Yes, though the force of gravity extends infinitely, it does attract far objects less than near objects.
What effect is created by the use of three-point perspective?
Objects look as though they are being seen from above or below
How can 2 objects have the same volume but different densities?
Two objects can have the same volume but different densities if they have different masses. Density is calculated as mass divided by volume, so if the masses of the two objects are different even though their volumes are the same, their densities will also be different.
Is mass and weight equal in all places on earth?
Mass and weight, though closely related, are not the same thing. There are tiny, but detectable, fluctuations in the gravitational field of the earth. So an object of a given mass would not weigh the same if it was weighed at different places.
The recognition that objects are constant and unchanging even though sensory input about them is changing is called?
The recognition that objects are constant and unchanging even though sensory input about them is changing is called object constancy. This concept helps individuals understand that objects remain the same despite changes in how they may appear or how they are perceived.
How does friction always effect the motion of objects?
Friction always opposes the motion of objects by creating a force that acts in the opposite direction of the object's motion. This force resists the movement of the object, causing it to slow down or stop. Though friction can sometimes be reduced, it will always be present to some degree and affect the motion of objects.
Can you see through me transparent object can be see though clearly?
Yes, transparent objects allow light to pass through without significant distortion, making objects behind them clearly visible.
What kind object serves no purpose?
No object serves no purpose, though objects serve a purpose when they are needed. An object that serves no purpose is one that is not needed at the time. Synonyms for something that serves no purpose are superfluous, unnecessary, needless, or excrescent.
