No, because acceleration of free fall is gravitational acceleration minus air resistance. Weight does not involve air resistance.

Mass and weight are related by?

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. Weight depends on both the object's mass and the acceleration due to gravity at its location. The relationship between mass and weight is given by the equation weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity.


What is the weight of a falling object that has a mass of 16 kg?

0 because while the mass remains at 16 Kg, as the object is falling its weight (caused by the pull of gravity on its mass) becomes 0 as its acceleration equals that of the acceleration due to gravity. (This is why things seem weightless when in orbit round the Earth - they are actually falling).


What is the acceleration caused by your push on a ball?

The acceleration of the ball would depend on its mass and the force of the push. This is because force = mass times acceleration. You could manipulate this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing each side by mass. Acceleration therefore equals force/mass.


What does forces in terms of acceleration mean?

As defined by Isaac Newton, force equals mass times acceleration.


According to newtons second law of motion does weight depends on an objects mass and the net force acting on the object?

Well, Weight is a force that equals mass times the gravitational acceleration. i.e. F = m * g, on Earth g= 9.81 m/s/s (or meters per second squared). So to answer your question, no. The Weight of an object depends only on its mass and the acceleration due to gravity.

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 the weight an object with a mass of 5.0kg?

Weight is an objects mass times the gravitational acceleration it undergoes. For a 5.0kg mass this would be 49N which equals 11.02 pounds.


What is mg in physic?

m is the mass of an object. g is acceleration due to gravity, which is 9.81m/s^2. So mg is mass x acceleration due to gravity. It equals the weight of an object. Typically mass is measured in grams and acceleration due to gravity is in meters per second squared, giving the weight in Newtons.


Is this right force equals mass divided by acceleration?

No. Force = mass x acceleration.


How can you measure weight?

Weight is the term for the mass times the acceleration. To measure that, you multiply the mass times the acceleration

What happens to the acceleration when mass and force are doubled?

Acceleration remains the same. Remember that Force equals Mass times Acceleration, or Acceleration equals Force divided by Mass. So, if both Force and Mass double, Force Divided by Mass remains the same.


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


Weight equals mass times?

acceleration due to gravity. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, and it is calculated by multiplying the mass of the object by the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2 on Earth).
