The giraffe's weight or force is the product of its mass times earth's acceleration. Thus, 1470kg = 1470 x 9.80 = 14,406 newtons or about 3,241lbs

What is mass multiplied by gravity?

Force or weight Force= mass X acceleration gravity is an acceleration (9.8m/s2) Weight = mass X acceleration due to gravity


Will acceleration due to gravity change the weight of an object?

No, acceleration due to gravity does not change the weight of an object. Weight is determined by the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity in that location. The acceleration due to gravity affects the force with which an object is pulled toward the center of the Earth, leading to its weight.


If acceleration equals gravity. what is the weight of the object?

If acceleration is equal to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth), then the weight of the object would be equal to its mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. This relationship is described by the formula Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity.


What is a force that can change when acceleration due to gravity changes?

Weight. The force of weight experienced by an object can change when the acceleration due to gravity changes. Weight is directly proportional to the acceleration due to gravity, so an increase or decrease in gravity will result in a corresponding change in weight.


What do you multiply mass by to get the weight?

To calculate weight, you multiply mass by the acceleration due to gravity. The formula is weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity is typically around 9.81 m/s^2 on Earth.


What factors does the weight of an object depend?

Mass and gravity


How gravity affect weight?

Gravity impacts weight because weight is calculated using F = M * A. F - Weight in this case M - Mass of your object A - Acceleration of gravity on the planet the object is on. Assuming mass remains constant and your acceleration (your gravity) increases, weight will increase. If acceleration (your gravity) decreases, weight will decrease.


Does your weight change if the acceleration due to gravity changes?

Your weight is determined by the force of gravity acting on you, so it will change if the acceleration due to gravity changes. If the acceleration due to gravity increases, your weight will increase, and if it decreases, your weight will decrease.


Is gravity the same as weight?

Gravity is not the same as weight. Using the MKS unit system, gravity is a constant of acceleration (9.8m/s2) while weight is a Force in Newtons which can be calculated using: Fweight = mass*acceleration where mass is in kilograms and acceleration is the acceleration due to gravity.


How do you calculate mass if you are only given weight in Newtons?

Weight = (mass) x (local acceleration of gravity). Mass = (weight) / (local acceleration of gravity) If you know the weight and the local acceleration of gravity, you can calculate the mass. Anywhere on or near the surface of the earth, the local acceleration of gravity is about 9.82 meters per second2 . As an example, an object with a weight of 9.82 newtons has a mass of one kilogram.


What two factors does the weight of an object depend?

The weight of an object depends on its mass and the acceleration due to gravity. The weight of an object can be calculated using the equation: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity.


How are weight and gravitationa force related?

Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. It is proportional to an object's mass and the acceleration due to gravity. The formula to calculate weight is weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity.
