What else can I help you with?
Why does a heavier person slide down a hill faster than a lighter person when on a snow tube?
because the heavier person has more initeria and therefore the forces that would slow the slider down i.e friction, wind resistance, whatever, have less effect on a heavier person that a lighter person
Why will go down the ramp faster a light object or a heavier one?
a lighter one because it doesn't take long for it to get going but, if you wanna know which one will go farther it would be the heavier one because it has more momentum.
What law says that heavier objects require more force than lighter objects to move or accelerate them?
The 2nd Law of Motion by Sir Isaac Newton.
How many type aircraft?
There are "lighter-than-air" craft which are known as blimps or balloons, "heavier-than-air" craft which are divided into fixed-wing (airplanes) and rotary wings (helicopters).
Do heavier objects roll down a hill faster than lighter ones?
Rolling is more complicated than falling, because rotational inertia is involved. Without that factor, in an ideal world this is the same as asking if a heavier object falls faster than a lighter one. The answer to that question (again, in an ideal world) is no. In the real world... it might, or it might not, it depends on the exact circumstances. There's no fundamental reason that it should if the objects have similar construction (i.e. moments of rotational inertia), but friction and wind resistance complicate things.
In freefall heavier objects fall with a greater acceleration than lighter objects?
In a vacuum, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of mass due to gravity. This is known as the equivalence principle. However, in environments with air resistance, lighter objects may experience more air resistance and fall slower compared to heavier objects due to their surface area-to-mass ratio.
Does a heavier object or a lighter object experience a greater gravitatoinal force?
the heavier object
Is momentum of heavier bodies is greater than lighter bodies?
Yes.
Does a heavier object or a lighter object experience a greater gravational force?
A heavier object experiences a greater gravitational force than a lighter object due to its larger mass. Gravity is directly proportional to mass; the greater the mass, the greater the gravitational force.
Does a heavier object or a lighter object experience a greater gravitational force?
A heavier object experiences a greater gravitational force than a lighter object, as the force of gravity is directly proportional to the mass of an object.
Do heavier objects fall with a greater acceleration than lighter objects in free fall?
In the absence of air resistance, all objects fall with the same acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their mass. This acceleration is approximately 9.81 m/s^2 near the surface of the Earth.
Which swing more heavier pendulum or lighter pendulum?
A heavier pendulum swings slower than a lighter pendulum of similar length due to the effects of gravity. However, in terms of weight, the heavier pendulum will place more strain on the support structure due to its greater mass.
Why does heavier marble roll slower than a lighter marble down a slope?
Heavier marbles have more mass, so they have more inertia and resist acceleration more than lighter marbles. This results in slower acceleration and slower rolling speed down a slope compared to lighter marbles.
What is an example of newton's second law of moton?
An example of Newton's second law is when you push a heavier object and a lighter object with the same amount of force. The heavier object will accelerate less than the lighter object because it has a greater mass, demonstrating the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration.
In freefall do heavier objects fall with a greater acceleration than lighter objects?
No, in the absence of air resistance, all objects fall with the same acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their mass. This is described by the principle of equivalence, which states that gravitational mass and inertial mass are equivalent.
What effect does the mass of a rocket have on its acceleration?
A heavier rocket will have a lower acceleration compared to a lighter rocket, assuming the same amount of force is applied. This is because the heavier rocket will require more force to overcome its inertia and accelerate.
Why does a heavier plane fly further than a lighter plane?
It usually has greater capacity for fuel storage.
